Opposition National Coun-
cil member, Bassam Isaq,
said that the Syrian opposi-
tion will not participate in
the presidential elections,
adding: “ the opposition has
to challenge the President
Bashar al- Assad’s by nomi-
nating and voting to highlight
the fraud carried out by the
Syrian government”.For his
part, Mansour Atassi, a Syr-
ian opponent, said that all op-
position parties are rejecting
the elections.
The political body in the Syr-
ian opposition coalition has
decided to form specialized
departments similar to Direc-
torates of the Ministry of For-
eign Affairs, asking directors
to prepare a work plan to be
displayed in the meeting of
the body and will also inform
the ambassadors of the coali-
tion about this decision.
Kamal Labwani, member
of the Syrian opposition co-
alition, said to MENA that
the Syrian army is trying to
achieve settlements with mil-
itary besieged towns in order
to avoid entering into battles,
explaining that the agreement
to hold a truce in Zabadani
was denounced from the side
of the Syrian army, saying
that the Syrian government
has pursued a policy of grad-
ual nibbling across the recon-
ciliations.Labwani, pointed
out that although some fight-
ers have turned themselves
in, but that does not mean
achieving stability, because
opposition secret cells will
continue its operations.

the presidential elections, in
light of the Syrian crisis, is
part of the political process,

er; it can be constitutionally

current circumstances, these
elections will not be inclu-
sive of votes.
