International diplomacy has failed to solve the Syrian crisis, and revolution is the only way to end more than a year of bloodshed in the country, Burhan Ghalioun, a senior member of the opposition Syrian National Council (SNC), said on Wednesday.
“A revolution will solve the problem, not negotiations or diplomatic efforts,” Ghalioun, the former head of the Istanbul-based group, said during a news conference in Moscow following talks with Russian Foreign Minster Sergei Lavrov and his deputy Mikhail Bogdanov.
The situation in Syria “has further shifted toward a revolution,” he said, adding that none of the diplomatic initiatives aimed to resolve the bloody conflict in Syria that have been proposed so far “have yielded any concrete results.”
