Remarks by UN Special Envoy for Syria, Staffan de Mistura
Following meeting with Minister Walid Al-Moualem, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Foreign Affairs and Expatriates of the Syrian Arab Republic

SdeM: Good afternoon. We had a long meeting with Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister al-Moualem, and during this meeting, we had a very frank and very intense exchange of opinions concerning the constitutional committee and the political process in general.

I hope you will forgive me if I cannot elaborate on the outcome because I am due to report to the Secretary-General and to the Security Council.

Thank you very much.
