Conflict in Syria should be settled in political way, coordination of efforts needed - EU ambassador to Moscow
MOSCOW. Jan 13 (Interfax) - The European Union has always called for the coordination of actions in Syria, but a solution to the Syrian conflict should be political, head of the European Union delegation to Russia Vygaudas Usackas said.
"The European Union has always called for us to coordinate our actions," Usackas told reporters on the sidelines of the Gaidar Forum Russia and the World: Looking to the Future, which is being held in Moscow on Wednesday.
He replied thus to a question as to how the cooperation between the military structures of Russia, the United States and the EU states can be established in Syria.
In addition, Usackas said that "the response to the conflict in Syria should be political."
"Therefore, we support all the steps which are being taken by the UN envoy to create this platform and begin political talks between different groupings in Syria," he said.
