“We proceed from the fact that the work of the Constitutional Committee will have a decisive impact on the final normalization of the situation in the SAR,” he said.

According to him, the parties have repeatedly said that there is no other alternative in Syria, except for the political process.

He also said that the committee members, the Syrians themselves, should not be allowed to be tied hand and foot. According to him, they should work voluntarily and strive for a positive result.

Putin added that the launch of the work of the Constitutional Committee is necessary as soon as possible and "as soon as possible strive for a final positive result, for agreements between the warring parties in the interests of his own people."

During the tripartite summit in the Turkish capital, the presidents of Russia, Iran and Turkey discussed the situation in Syrian Idlib and the formation of the constitutional committee of the SAR.
