UN Special Envoy for Syria Staffan de Mistura handed over a non-paper to all delegations at the intra-Syrian talks in Geneva, Sputnik International reported, adding that the foreign-backed opposition’s High Negotiations Committee refused to accept the plan of four baskets.

The four baskets are governance and political transition, constitution, elections and counterterrorism, the Russian agency quoted a source in the armed opposition as saying.

“The non-paper was indeed given to the delegations, and the HNC refused to accept it, ” the source said.

The source could not specify what the reaction from the Syrian government delegation was.

Sputnik learned that the non-paper puts specific questions related to each of the baskets that need to be addressed by delegations.
