Qaftan: Constitutional Committee does not meet Syrian's aspirations

Last Friday the seventh pound of the Constitutional Committee to draft a constitution for Syria in line with the UN Res 2254.

Syria's Future Party Ibrahim Qaftan was met by ANHA to shed light on the topic.

Qaftan said: the Constitutional Committee discusses irrelevant issues, at the first it was Geneva and Sochi then Astana. This is illegitimate, not all Syrian are represented on the committee.

Qaftan noted that the committee in question is influenced by Russia in the last period, Russia works solely on the Syrian file and referred the Geneva talks elsewhere.

To the wonder of Qaftan no statement was released at the end of the seventh round as it was the case in the last six rounds the matter that implies failure between the ''Regime'' and ''opposition'' delegates, according to Qaftan.

Qaftan questioned the talks undergoing in these rounds as they introduced nothing and all rounds were noted by differences between the two delegations.

Responding to a question if the committee meets the aspirations of the Syrian people Qaftan said ''if it was so then why these rounds are not taking place on the Syrian soil as it is the case of North and East Syria and not by run and orchestrated by foreign powers''.

Qaftan went on to say that Turkey interferes in the opposition and the Syrian regime is directed by Russia and Iran. In spite of all these matters we are determined that the United Nations resolutions be applied to the Syrian political solution''.

''the regime is determined to cling to the 2012 constitution and the opposition rejects that proper, a new one should be drafted, this committee introduced o progress regardless its legitimacy. They still differ in terms and vocabulary and details remain untouched yet'', Qaftan said.

Qaftan says ''the Constitution Committee was born dead and in its current form does not represent all Syrians and it implies to prolong the Syrian crisis''.   

Qaftan called on all Syrian parts to take parts in the talks and to form a transition government to run the country then constitution to be discussed then elections  and to fight terror'' all Syrian people ought to be aware of the inaction lies not in the constitution rather in its putting into action and what we wish it be run democratically not by the intelligence circles''.
