Syrian Ambassador: Syria-Saudi Effort Ongoing, Results Should Emerge in Lebanon

Syrian ambassador Ali Abdul Karim Ali on Wednesday stressed that the Damascus-Riyadh mediation effort was ongoing.

He said results of this effort should emerge here through the various parties in Lebanon – through their response, consensus and dialogue among themselves away from media spotlight to reach the required results.

He said Syria hopes for a fruitful and speedy outcome "that would prevent strife."

Turning to Iran, he said Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's stance on the Special Tribunal for Lebanon was "preceded by many positions which shook the image of the international tribunal and doubted its credibility."
