00:00Top diplomats met in Jordan to discuss plans and goals in assisting Syria's transition
00:07from the deposed government of Bashar al-Assad.
00:11Ministers from the U.S., EU, Arab League and Turkey gathered in an attempt to forge a consensus
00:17on what new leadership in Syria should prioritize.
00:20However, no Syrian representatives were in attendance.
00:24What is not critical in Syria is that we see a credible and inclusive political process
00:30that brings together all of Syria, all communities in Syria.
00:35And the second point is that we need to make sure that state institutions do not collapse
00:40and that we get in humanitarian assistance as quickly as possible.
00:47Broad consensus reportedly exists that Syria's new government must be inclusive, must respect
00:52women and minority rights, reject terrorism and secure and destroy suspected Assad-era
00:58chemical weapons stockpiles.
