France wants UN Security Council to discuss reports by Arab League's mission to Syria

 

The French Foreign Ministry says that the report issued by the Arab League's mission that has just left Syria should be discussed by the UN Security Council, RIA Novosti reports.

The official position of the French Republic was announced by the country's Foreign Minister, Alain Juppe.

The mission, which currently numbers about 165 monitors, has been in Syria since December 26 to oversee an Arab road map, under which President Bashar al-Assad's government agreed to end violence.

The United Nations estimates that the unrest in Syria between the security forces and pro-democracy activists has left more than 5,400 people dead since it first erupted in March, with 400 killed since the Arab observer mission's deployment.
