The Ministry of Foreign Affairs emphasized that settlement in Syria is possible only "through a wide intersiria dialogue with the participation of all ethno -confessional groups, including the Kurds." The basis of the agreements should be the Geneva Communist Kommunika of June 30, 2012 and decisions of the UN Security Council adopted on the initiative of the International Syrian Support Group.
