He said a press center for reporters would be established that would start working at 9 a.m. local time (15:00 GMT) on January 23. The journalists will get accreditation badges. The accreditation process began on January 19 and finished Friday evening.
The intra-Syrian talks, set to begin on January 23 in the Kazakh capital, were initiated by Russia, Iran and Turkey. Kazakh President Nursultan Nazarbayev endorsed the idea of Astana as a platform for the negotiations which was proposed in December. The talks are considered to supplement the Geneva talks slated for February 8.
