Thirty members of the highly-fractured Syrian opposition are in Moscow for talks among themselves, as well as with Assad government representatives. The negotiations come almost a year after the last attempt to find a political solution to the crisis.
“We believe it would be wrong to miss this opportunity,” Majid Habbo, the secretary of the National Coordination Committee (NCC), one of the Syrian opposition groups taking part in the Moscow talks told RT.
Habbo has praised the Russian initiative is essential in terminating the “post-Geneva stagnation period, which has seen a rise in military tension.”
