Syria rejects Russian draft constitution
As was widely expected, the Syrian Arab Republic has rejected provisions of the Russian draft Constitution for Syria calling for autonomous communities in Syria, including for Kurdish regions.
According to Al Masdar news, Syrian envoy to the UN and Syrian representative to the Astana peace talks, Dr. Bashar Jaafari said,
“It’s completely unacceptable for a group of people to decide to create a statelet and call it federalism”.
