Ban: The only answer is a political settlement

World

UNITED NATIONS — UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said a military victory in Syria “is an illusion” as he appealed Tuesday to major powers to stop sending weapons to all sides in Syria, according to Agence France-Presse.

“I appeal to all states to stop fuelling the bloodshed and to end the arms flows to all parties,” Ban told world leaders as he opened the annual General Assembly summit.

The UN chief also called on the Syrian government  and the “opposition “– and “all those I this hall with influence over them” — to work immediately to arrange a second Geneva conference aimed at reaching a political solution.

“Military victory is an illusion. The only answer is a political settlement,” he said.
