Syrian Consitutional Committee press conference 04 December 2020
Continuity footage from the press conference on Friday at UN Geneva, at the end of the fifth and final day of the Syrian Constitutional Committee discussions at the Palais des Nations, with UN Special Envoy for Syria Geir Pedersen.
Ahead of the meeting, the UN negotiator said that the two Syrian co-chairs had agreed to discuss national foundations and principles, while constitutional matters would be on the agenda at a fifth meeting in the new year. “(The fourth meeting) would be followed up with a fifth session in January which will focus on constitutional principles, or basic principles of the constitution, so this is obviously a package,” he told journalists attending the press conference remotely, in line with COVID-19 prevention measures.
An equal number of delegates from the Government, opposition and civil society have taken part in the discussions in the Swiss city. Numbering 45 in total, the forum is known collectively as the “Small Body”.
