Syrian
diplomats earlier on Thursday entered the Russian Foreign Ministry in Moscow to
discuss proposals for a peaceful resolution to the crisis following a diplomatic
push by Brahimi in Damascus this week.
Plans
made by Brahimi to broker a peaceful transfer of power in Syria will top the
agenda when Lavrov and Brahimi meet on later this week, the foreign ministry
spokesman said.
"We
plan to discuss a range of issues linked to a political and diplomatic
settlement in Syria, including Brahimi's efforts aimed at ending the violence
and the launch of a comprehensive national dialogue," Alexander
Lukashevich said.
On
Thursday, Syrian Deputy Foreign Minister Faisal Makdad and another aide will
meet Lavrov and Mikhail Bogdanov, the Kremlin's envoy for Middle East affairs,
a Russian foreign ministry source said, without detailing the nature of the
talks.
