“Creation of an international public opinion that understands the events in Syria well would support the national dialogue conference,” a-Halqi said.

He briefed the Trustees’ council on guarantees given to those who determine to return home to take part in the national dialogue, clarifying that government has also taken several measures to ensure aid and shelters to the displaced citizens who return home.

Cultural awareness
