Russian Foreign Ministry sums up results of Lausanne talks

Baku, Azerbaijan, Oct. 16

Trend:

All participants of the international ministerial meeting on the Syrian settlement in the Swiss city of Lausanne confirmed their commitment to preserve Syria's integrity, where the Syrians themselves would determine their future, RIA Novosti agency reported.

A ministerial meeting on Syria was held in a "narrow format" in Lausanne October 15 with the participation of Russia, the US, Iran, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Egypt, Iraq, Jordan and UN Secretary-General's Special Envoy Staffan de Mistura.

According to the message, the Russian side represented by Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov stressed at the negotiations that the key for the restoration and the successful implementation of the ceasefire regime is to dissociate the moderate opposition groups from the militants of Jebhat al-Nusra terrorist group, banned in Russia, and other affiliated terrorist groups.

"In this regard, the joint work of all participants of the meeting with the forces in Syria will be required,” the message said. "The operation against the militants of Islamic State (IS, aka ISIS, ISIL or Daesh) and Jebhat al-Nusra terrorist groups will be continued."
