Syrian Foreign Ministry: There is no civil war in Syria

Syrian Ministry of Foreign Affairs said that the talks about the civil

war in Syria “do not correspond to reality”, RIA Novosti reports 

today with reference to Agence France Presse.

The famous Algerian diplomat Lakhdar Brahimi was appointed

UN and Arab League Special Representative on Syria on Friday. He stressed he is not sure that he will stop the war in Syria,

but he will make every effort and looks forward to working with the

support of the Syrians and the international community.

Lakhdar Brahimi is considered one of the leading diplomats in the

world, who has taken part in the resolution of complex conflicts, including

in Lebanon, Afghanistan and Iraq. In 1989, it was through his

assistance as a special envoy of the Arab League that the agreement

that ended the 15-year civil war in Lebanon was signed.
