Faisal that the role of the Kingdom is pivotal in the context of Syria's future. We spoke about the role of Hezbollah and terrorist groups which launch war in Syria, a move that would affect the whole region, he said. We have to take all these points into consideration as we need to always be in contact to exchange new ideas and find out whether we have lived up to our commitments, he said. Regarding the controversial extradition of Snowden from Russia, Kerry requested the media to remain quiet towards this issue as it is "not a normal issue". He said that the U.S. simply requests Russia, with which it doesn't share an extradition agreement, to hand over a person wanted for justice in the States. He cited that the U.S. has previously extradited some people to Russia because they were wanted to appear before justice in Russia. He demanded Moscow to follow suit, despite the lack for an international agreement. --More 22:04 LOCAL TIME 19:04 GMT تغريد
