Syrian Diplomat: Sanctions Could Derail Peace Plan

HeadlineJul 12, 2012

In response to the proposal suggested by the United States and three Security Council allies, Syria’s ambassador to the United Nations, Bashar Jaafari, said the threat of new sanctions could derail the international ceasefire plan.

Bashar Jaafari: “We are fully committed towards the success of Mr. Kofi Annan’s plan. But at the same time, we are fully warning everybody that the other efforts deployed by here and there, by this country or that country, to derail the six-points plan of Mr. Kofi Annan from its initial track, would be extremely dangerous.”
