Kremlin: Separation of moderate opposition from terrorist groups main task in Syria

Moscow, SANA- Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov asserted that “the key task in Syria is the separation of moderate opposition from the terrorist groups,” adding that “It is the principle objective without which further advancement is barely possible.”

“Without doubt, this gives hope that this will promote the peaceful resolution and will create the necessary atmosphere for political settlement,” Sputnik quoted Peskov as saying to the journalists on Wednesday.

” The truce regime remains rather fragile in Syria and further promotion of settlement in Syria is hardly possible without the separation of modest opposition forces from terrorist groups,” Peskov added.

On September 9, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and US Secretary of State John Kerry announced a new plan on Syria, which stipulates a ceasefire that comes into force Monday.
