Syrian opposition insists Russia should end air strikes: Interfax

MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russia should immediately end its air strikes in Syria as a condition for negotiations between the opposition and the central government in Damascus, Interfax news agency quoted a Syrian opposition member as saying on Tuesday.

"It (Russia's air force operation) complicates the situation," Monzer Makhous, an official from the Syrian opposition's High Negotiating Committee, told Interfax.
