Ammon News - AMMONNEWS - The Syrian opposition meeting ended in Riyadh without agreement on Tuesday due to the fact that Moscow refused to agree on any changes to President Bashar al-Assad’s regime or altering of the current Syrian constitution.
The meeting witnessed a partial agreement between the opposition delegations and the Cairo side regarding some issues.
The stalemate of Russia's representatives has hampered efforts to bring together representatives of the two groups to the negotiations.
The Syrian opposition has so far met with representatives from Riyadh, Cairo and Moscow for two days with the aim of forming a unified delegation in preparation for the next round of Geneva talks.
