Syria peace envoy Brahimi meets Assad

UN-ARAB League peace envoy Lakhdar Brahimi says he hopes all parties will reach agreement to end the "worrying" situation in Syria.

After holding talks in Damascus with President Bashar al-Assad on Monday, he said: "I had the honour to meet the president and as usual we exchanged views on the many steps to be taken in the future."

He has been in Syria since Sunday to launch a fresh bid to end the conflict roiling the country.

He said the Syrian crisis was "always worrying". More than 44,000 people have been killed since the uprising against Assad's regime erupted in March last year, according to figures of the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.

Brahimi expressed hope that "all parties are in favour of a solution that draws Syrian people together".

"Assad expressed his views on the situation and I told him about my meetings with leaders in the region and outside," said the veteran Algerian diplomat who took over the Syria role from former UN chief Kofi Annan.

Brahimi recently held talks with US and Russian officials, who hold differing views on how to deal with the Syrian crisis.

Washington has repeatedly called for the ouster of Assad, while Moscow still remains one of the few staunch supporters of the Damascus regime.

Brahimi had last visited the country on October 19.
