Russia says 'open to dialogue' on Syria
(eNews.pk) - MOSCOW: Russia said Wednesday it was "open to constructive proposals" on Syria but remained opposed to any UN resolution that tried to force all nations to respect sanctions previously imposed by the West.

"We are open to constructive proposals that go in line with the set task of ending violence," Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said following talks with his Turkish counterpart Ahmet Davutoglu.

His comments came as Russian and US officials had talks in Moscow on how to stop nearly 10 months of violence in Syria that the United Nations estimates have killed more than 5,400 people.

While Russia would not be introducing a new resolution on Syria, it remained open to changes to a previous Moscow draft that blames both the Syrian government and the opposition for the use of force, said Lavrov.

But he insisted that Russia would not back UN action granting the global body's approval of economic sanctions already adopted against its traditional ally by the European Union and the United States.

"We will not be able to back proposals under which unilaterally imposed sanctions against Syria -- sanctions that were declared without any consultations with Russia or China ... are blessed retroactively," said Lavrov. "This is simply unfair and counterproductive."

Any resolution backed by Russia "must firmly record that it cannot be used or interpreted to justify anyone's outside military intervention in the Syria crisis," he added.

Russia and China both blocked a previous Western attempt to have the UN Security Council formally condemn Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's crackdown and impose stiff sanctions if he refuses to enter direct talks.
