Nasr Hariri said that the HNC has certain remarks on the ideas of UN Special Envoy for Syria Staffan de Mistura on the future of the country laid down in a non-paper that he gave to the delegations for consideration.

"De Mistura gave us a non-paper, they are general provisions on the future of Syria… We have some additional remarks, which we will present to de Mistura, just to enrich this paper," Hariri told reporters after meeting with de Mistura.

Earlier in the day, de Mistura explained his vision of the future of Syria in a non-paper of 12 points, which he handed over to the delegations.

The fourth round of the intra-Syrian talks between the government and opposition factions under the auspices of the United Nations began in Geneva last week and is expected to conclude later in the day.
