Qatar's foreign minister on Tuesday welcomed a Russian-brokered
agreement for "de-escalation" zones in Syria but said the plan was no
substitute for a political transition that would see President Bashar al-Assad
step down.
Qatar has been a
supporter of terrorists who have been fighting to overthrow the Syrian
president during six years of civil war.
"It is good to have de-escalation zones but this must be
a step to reach a solution to the Syrian crisis and not to use it as an excuse
to delay this solution and to postpone the political transition," the
Qatari foreign ministry quoted Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman al-Thani said.
The remarks came after talks between the Qatari minister and U.S.
Secretary of State Rex Tillerson in Washington.
Russia
brokered the deal for de-escalation zones with backing from Iran and Turkey
which supports terrorists fighting in Syria against Assad. Ceasefire talks were
held in the Kazakh capital Astana last week. The deal took effect at midnight
on Friday.
Some
fighting has continued in those areas, particularly north of Hama city, but the
overall intensity has reduced, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights
monitoring group said.
