Kuwaiti Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister, Sheikh Sabah Khalid Al-Hamad Al-Sabah said here today there are positive indications for a way out of the volatile situation in Syria. Speaking to KUNA ahead of leaving here after attending the 137th session of the Arab League Ministerial Council, the Kuwaiti minister listed the favorable indications as tasking UN-Arab Envoy on Syria Kofi Annan with discussing the current situation in Syria with Syrian officials in a bid to find a real solution to the crisis of Syria. He said this effort mainly aims to ensure security and stability in Syria and to halt bloodshed and all types of violence there. In this context, he hailed Annan's long diplomatic and political experience, wishing him success in his mission, which he kicked off on Friday. He urged the Syrian government to favorably cooperate with Annan in this regard. The positive indications for the Syrian situation also include an agreement between Arab foreign ministers and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov on a way out of the volatile situation in this Arab country, he said. The agreement includes immediate halt of violence by anyone, impartial control mechanism, non-foreign intervention in Syria, unrestricted access of humanitarian aid to all Syrians and support to Annan's mission in Syria. The Kuwaiti foreign minister, who is chairman of the 137th session of the Arab League Ministerial Council, said the Arab League would soon meet a Chinese envoy to explain his country's position on the crisis of Syria.
