The foreign ministers of Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Egypt, and Iraq as well as their counterparts from Iran, Russia, and Turkey, the three states that have been supporting peace talks between the Syrian government and opposition groups, issued the remarks in a statement on Saturday.
They stressed the need for “launching a comprehensive political process, based on [United Nations] Security Council Resolution 2254, to put an end to the military escalation that leads to the shedding of more innocent and defenseless blood and prolonging the crisis,” they said at the end of a meeting in the Qatari capital Doha.
The resolution that was agreed in 2015, called for a ceasefire in Syria, which had been gripped by foreign-backed militancy since March 2011.
The statement came more than a week after foreign-backed militants began an extensive armed campaign aimed at enabling their resurgence across the Arab country.
It said implementation of such political process would help “preserve the unity, sovereignty, independence, and territorial integrity of Syria…and ensure the voluntary return of refugees and the displaced.”
Continuation of Syria’s crisis constitutes a dangerous development for the safety of the country as well as regional and international security, the countries said.
They urged all relevant parties to contribute to the political solution, besides stressing the importance of strengthening joint international efforts aimed at increasing transfer of humanitarian aid to Syrian people.
Attending the meeting earlier, Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi had likewise laid emphasis on the importance of initiation of the political approach to Syria’s crisis.
According to the top diplomat, the “most important” issue agreed by the parties partaking in the meeting was that "political dialogue between the Syrian government and the legitimate opposition groups" had to begin.
