Dushanbe, 12.03.2016. (NIAT “Khovar”). — The Syrian opposition Higher Negotiation Committee (HNC) stressed Friday that it will partake in the upcoming Geneva talks on Syria slated for March 14, Xinhua News Agency reports.
The approval was announced in a statement issued Friday, and carried by the Saudi-funded Al Arabyia TV, just days after the HNC gave conflicted stances regarding its participation in the second round of the Geneva talks.
The previous round of talks ended last month with no tangible results, but intensified international efforts have managed to establish a cessation of hostilities in Syria that significantly facilitated access to humanitarian supplies.
The cessation of hostilities has been holding over the past 10 days with no notable violations, something that could be built on for the upcoming talks in Geneva.
