„We quite understand that in Syria’s future there will be an expanded government,” he said, asserting that that there won’t be a transitional governing body like what happened in Iraq upon the US invasion, calling on international lawmen to give any text in any UN reference or in international law that contains anything like the term „transitional government body.“

Al-Zoubi affirmed that any agreement reached at Geneva will be put to referendum by the Syrian people and if not approved, it will be worthless and meaningless and cannot be implemented, asserting that the Syrian people will decide upon the country‘s political future. (..)

He also affirmed that there is mass infiltration by terrorists from Jordan to Syria which have become known to everyone, calling upon the Jordanian government to control its borders and not yield to external pressure, especially pressure exerted by Saudi Arabia.

Al-Zoubi reiterated the Syrian government‘s position which is committed to participating in Geneva 2 and keen on having it be a success, and that this is based on the government‘s commitment to the higher national interests of the Syrian people and state.
