(ANSA) - ROME, DEC 8 - Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani said
Sunday the transition of power from Bashar al-Assad to
pro-Turkish Islamist rebels and others in Syria should be
political and not military.
In Syria, he said, "we hope for a peaceful handover between the
regime that fell and the new reality. That there be a political
and not military transition. It seems to me that at the moment
things are going in this direction. It is important that the
political unity of Syria remains".
On the situation "the constant discussion with our G7 allies
continues and it is not excluded that there could be an EU
document, a document of 27, in the next few hours", he added.
