Saudi Arabia intends to continue to participate in the process of settlement of the Syrian crisis, the UN special envoy on Syria, Staffan de Mistura, said after talks with the Foreign Minister of the Kingdom, Adel al-Dzhubeyr, and the Syrian opposition.
"We can not afford to miss this moment, in spite of what is happening in the region", RIA Novosti quotes him as saying.
"There is a clear attitude with the Saudi side to the fact that the current regional tensions will not have a negative impact on the Viennese momentum and the continuation of the political process that the UN together with an international group of support of Syria intends to begin soon in Geneva," de Mistura said.
