HNC quit Syria talks because of anger at Syrian army advances: Analyst
Press TV has conducted an interview with Mark Sleboda, an international relations and security analyst, and writer and lecturer Jonathan Fryer to discuss the suspension of the Syrian peace talks in Geneva.
Sleboda says the Riyadh-assembled High Negotiations Committee (HNC), the so-called opposition coalition, has declared directly that the Syrian army advances supported by the Russian airstrikes have caused them to pull out of the Syria peace talks.
The Syrian Arab army has encircled the northern city of Aleppo, which could lead to the liberation of the city from the hands of the Takfiri terrorists, the analyst says, adding that the outlook on the ground would be disastrous for West’s allies in the region who hatched a plot to overthrow the Syrian government.
There could be no peace agreement without the participation of the Kurds who are fighting Daesh and other terrorist groups in Syria, Sleboda says.
He says, “Turkey backed by the United States can begin a military intervention and invasion” in Syria in order to keep a 60-mile corridor north of Aleppo open for the terrorist organizations active in the Arab country.
Fryer, for his part, says there had been accusations and counter-accusations from both the Syrian government and the so-called opposition group before the Syria peace talks were suspended on Wednesday.
The UN has said it will reconvene the talks on February 25, he says, adding, “The Syrian army with Russian air support has been advancing around Aleppo and there could be quite significant changes on the ground,” which could affect future talks on peace in the war-torn country.
