“The next round is due to take place approximately two weeks after this one, expected to be over on March 3,” he said.

 

Earlier, de Mistura said that he was going to concentrate on a political solution at the intra-Syrian talks. Meanwhile, the meetings focused just on the format and procedure of further discussions. These issues also were included in the documents handed by the UN envoy on February 24 to the delegations of Syrian government and Riyadh-backed group.
