"We talked about the mechanism of how to push forward the Geneva process and maintain the political momentum. On Wednesday, I will have the meeting with [Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Gennady] Gatilov. We will suggest him our perspective on how to move this process forward," Makdissi said.
He noted that the Cairo platform has many ideas how to push the process.
"The rapprochement between the opposition and the government should be through written texts, not wishes. We are asking de Mistura to present a text that has commonalities of positions and to build on it," Makdissi said.
The Cairo group leader added that "the three baskets that de Mistura is suggesting should be discussed in a written form, through texts. Like the way they do it in the Security Council."
