(IsraelNN.com) Damascus is not stopping its efforts to renew peace
negotiations with Israel, Syrian President Bashar Assad said yesterday
at a press conference in Armenia. Assad said that while progress has
been held up by the lack of an Israeli partner for peace, "this doesn't
mean that we will stop talking or working for peace, and when that
partner is ready, the peace plan will be ready and we will save time."
After his talks with Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan, Assad called
for an immediate strengthening of Syrian-Armenian relations. Syria has
a large Armenian community, especially in the northern city of Aleppo.
