ISTANBUL, Turkey, Nov. 11 (UPI) -- Western-backed Syrian political opposition leaders said Monday they planned to join international peace talks, if the Assad regime meets specific conditions.
The conditions include a guarantee relief agencies can reach besieged areas, an assurance women and children held as political prisoners will be released from Syrian jails and an insistence there must be a political transition without the Assad regime, the Syrian National Council said in Istanbul, Turkey, early Monday after the second day of open-ended meetings.
