Putin calls for reconciliation in Syria

Russian President Vladimir Putin says the Syrian people must sit down for political talks and adopt a new constitution for their country.�

In his annual televised phone-in on Thursday, Putin said Russia is doing everything to ensure the situation in Syria does not deteriorate, adding a political process rather than military operations will help achieve reconciliation.

"We very much hope that a political process, not the use of armed forces by both sides with support from whosoever, including our support, will lead to reconciliation,� he said.

�It is necessary to accept, reach an agreement, sit down at the negotiating table, adopt a constitution, hold early elections on the basis of the constitution and in such a way come out of the crisis," Putin added.
