Member of the Syrian Constitutional Committee: The Committee’s work is “futile and useless”
The member of the Syrian Constitutional Committee in the civil society, Samira Moubayed, said: the Committee’s work is futile and useless and harms the importance of Constitutional work.
Moubayed confirmed on Tuesday that there are some parties in the opposition allying with the Assad regime in order to share power, and that the civil society delegation was divided into two parts between the Syrian opposition and the Assad regime.
She added that the Syrian opposition submitted a proposal paper clarifying the adoption of political viewpoints, and it didn’t present any vision that gave the priority to the Syrian people.
She continued: “It does not stem from the reality of the Syrian people, and the prevailing identity of Syrian diversity, and it adopts the concepts of the previous system that imposed totalitarian and authoritarian concepts.”
She added, “It is a spectrum of different opinions, and from my personal point of view, the continuity of the committee’s work in this way is futile and useless, and this directly harms the importance of constitutional work.”
She stressed that the seventh meeting of the Constitutional Committee did not meet the conditions for convening, but was held after the failure of the previous six rounds, and the inevitable result was the failure of the meeting before it was held.
The work of the seventh round of the meetings of the Syrian Constitutional Committee concluded on March 25, in the Swiss capital, Geneva, in the presence of the UN Special Envoy for Syria Geir Pedersen, who tried to pass his plan “step for step” in collusion with opposition parties, but failed.
