In response to the adoption of UN Security Council resolution 2268 on the cessation of hostilities in Syria, the Special Representative of the Syrian National Coalition to the United Nations, Dr. Najib Ghadbian, said:
“The position of the High Negotiations Committee on the adoption of Security Council resolution 2268 is clear. The Syrian opposition supports all efforts to protect civilians in Syria, enforce Security Council resolution 2254 and to achieve a political solution, including through the establishment of a transitional governing body forged on the basis of mutual consent that leaves no role for Assad and his clique, as required by the Geneva Communique of June 2012. But the effectiveness of today’s resolution will be proved through action, not words.
