Geneva - Sana
The meetings of the third round of the small committee to discuss the constitution concluded today at the United Nations headquarters in Geneva with the participation of the national delegation and other delegations.
A source Mawakib for the meetings pointed out that the meetings of this round were part of the agenda entitled “Basic National Principles”, where the national delegation presented many national principles, most notably national identity and cultural diversity as two basic principles that can be built upon in the subsequent stages of the committee’s work, but reaching a consensus on them has been suspended. By making proposals that are not related to the determinants of these two principles and are not related to the agenda of the current round of committee meetings.
The source said that the national delegation affirmed during its interventions its keenness to continue working openly in the coming rounds to reach consensus on these two principles and other national principles, which are a common ground for the Constitutional Committee to carry out its duties.
The third round of the meetings of the small committee to discuss the constitution, which emanated from the expanded body, began last Monday with a morning session before the United Nations announced the suspension of the meetings on the same day after discovering the presence of Coronavirus infections among the participating delegations, to resume them last Thursday.
It is noteworthy that the small committee consisting of 45 members, including 15 members of the national delegation, 15 members of the Turkish regime delegation, and 15 members of the civil society delegation, held two rounds at the United Nations headquarters in Geneva during November of last year.
