Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu at talks with UN Special Envoy for Syria Geir Pedersen in Moscow on Monday called for the transition to an active political process in Syria as soon as possible
"We are hoping very much for a transition to an active political process, which is the formation of a constitutional commission, the creation of a new Constitution, as well as the development of a mechanism for the adoption of this Constitution," Shoigu said.
According to the minister, the implementation of the UN Security Council Resolution 2254, which sets the stage for the normalization of the situation in the war-torn country, takes a very long time, while there are ample possibilities for its expedient implementation.
"There are all possibilities to overcome obstacles, which, in our opinion, are not significant," Shoigu emphasized.
