She appreciated the stand taken by Russia on the Syrian issue which she said was in line with the UN Charter.
Referring to the US-Russian joint strategy for Syria, she said that while Russia was dealing with the Syrian government, the US was supposed to deal with the Syrian opposition to bring them to Geneva.
She said that according to the formula being worked out to hold Geneva II, the opposition should be representative of the Syrian people.
"For us and the Russians, we are ready for Geneva II. But about the Americans, the Western (countries) and the (Syrian) opposition, we don't know. If you ask me if they would agree to convene (Geneva II) in December, I have no clue," Shaaban said.
