Carter proposes free elections, peacekeepers for Syria

Share:

brahimi carter in cairoFormer US president Jimmy Carter on Monday proposed three principles as a basis for Syria peace talks in Geneva: free elections, respect for their results and the deployment of peacekeepers.

Syria peace talks are set to begin in Switzerland on January 22, though the full list of participants is still unclear.

The talks have gone nowhere up to now because each belligerent “has been allowed to define the preconditions for negotiations,” Carter, who won the 2002 Nobel Peace Prize, wrote in an opinion piece in the Washington Post.

While President Bashar al-Assad considers his opponents terrorists and will not talk until they lay down their arms, the fractured opposition is demanding a full regime change, giving Assad no incentive to bargain.

“No one can win this war,” argued Carter in an article co-written with American University professor Robert Pastor.

“It is clear that the parties think they cannot afford to lose because they fear annihilation and this explains why the war will keep going unless the international community imposes a legitimate alternative.”

UN envoys Kofi Annan and Lakhdar Brahimi “have not been permitted to use their negotiating skills because the principal actors insist on preconditions of victory rather than mutual accommodation essential to bringing the war to an end,” argued the authors.

“These preconditions aim to win an unwinnable war rather than to forge an imperfect peace.”

Carter and Pastor propose basing the Geneva talks on letting the Syrian people decide on their future government in a free election closely monitored by international observers; an assurance that the victors will respect sectarian and minority groups; and the deployment of “a robust peacekeeping force” to make sure those goals are achieved.

Russia and the United States would need to agree to this approach, Iran “and other regional powers” would have to stop supporting their proxies, and the United Nations would have to make peace in Syria “a top priority.”

Unless these “difficult steps” are taken, Carter and Pastor warned, “the war may very well go on for another decade and likely create a wider circle of destruction and death.”

Carter was US president from 1977 to 1981, and his Atlanta-based Carter Center focuses on human rights and democracy around the world. Pastor, who served on the National Security Council under Carter, is the senior Carter Center conflict resolution advisor.

    Finally, someone with a realistic approach for a chance at real peace in Syria. However the terrorist will never agree. They know very well that if an election is held and closely monitored by international observers, Assad would win hands down. And this whole fake revolution would have been a waste of time. Unfortunately, you can not negotiate with terrorist. They only know death and destruction.

Or the few thousands who just thought it would be a good idea to jump on the bandwagon. It seems most only remember the few who are against Assad and so conveniently forget the ones who support him.

            The little children in Ghouta were kidnapped from Allawite families in Latakieh
            10 days before they died..still no one knows where they are buried. How do i know that? Their families and some 16 Allawites villages were deciminated..International HRW visited these places they called it War crimes.
            The 40000 number is plausable, there are also huge numbers of Christians massacred.. by your beloved Rats Afgans Talibans happy wahabi beheaders, canibals and other cockroaches from Russia..

Interesting how u never criticise your beloved terrorists Iran, asshead, hezzies and the Iraqi shite terrorists. Biased much. Btw did u “call family and friends” for the information regarding ghouta? I’m guessing its the same “family and friends” another terrorist sympathiser on this blog calls. History will not be kind to you lot.

If you were a bit intelligent for God’s sake, you should have known the Children came from Latakieh Allawites famillies, the liste of missing childdren is long it was taken by HRW, as i mentioned elsewhere, they also withnessed entire villages massacred, and called it “rivers of blood.. and many, many..are still missing!!

            Hi Hind, first I would like to wish you and your family a Merrry Christmas and happy new year. Secondly I would suggest you don’t attempt to converse with people who have nothing but hate in their heart. You see after reading this fools comments you will understand how deep the brainwashing actually is. This terrorist lover hates anybody who is not a salifi low life terrorist. Something his Sheikh has more than likely drilled into his thick head. Animals will always be animals.

            they killed people by cooking them in bread ovens..it was sensored in the West.

Who the hell were they, the Christians and Alawites only. You forget when the Russian minister Ladarov visited Syria the millions that again hit the streets and followed his motorcade from the airport to the presidential palace thanking Russia for the first veto they raised. Who do you think they were, Russians. The funny thing about it is Yalibnan and the like didn’t report it. I wonder why, hey.

            But you’re missing the point. Assad open fired on Syrians. It wasn’t a big group of Salafi extremists. And they continued to protest and continued to be massacred, so they finally took up arms. It took like a week for them to finally have the courage to take up arms against the army. Remember? If more people supported Assad than democracy, then why did he make a big deal about some silly demonstration?

            But you’re missing the point. Assad open fired on Syrians. It wasn’t a big group of Salafi extremists. And they continued to protest and continued to be massacred, so they finally took up arms. It took like a week for them to finally have the courage to take up arms against the army. Remember? If more people supported Assad than democracy, then why did he make a big deal about some silly demonstration?

            He didn’t, while the young were peacfully gathered in front of government buildings, the Nato CIA M16 Saudis were throwing fire bombs ligthing up goverment buildings in their backs..it was on videos, some youg protesters fled, same as in Libya, the young protesters were killed.. to give way to the real thing.

        Robert Ford was US Ambassador in Syria..(that says it all), everywhre he goes, that country is destroyed, and sectarianism is instaled..those unarmed Syrian youths would
        not have been protesting ordinary demands..have they lived to see what happened to Syria today. They were used same as in Libya, the yound “Arab Springers strategy”
        Then big boy proxie NATO mercenaries takes over.

        Hilarious, the US put’s Robert Ford in Irak, it’s destroyed, then puts him in Syria, it’s destroyed, now in Egypt, but this morning Egypt rejected US pick,,,no thank you.

    The real trouble is, the ‘terrorists’ are the ones running the government.

    Anyone who supports asshead and hizbiran hopefully has the same done to his/it’s as asshead treated innocent children. Supporters of these murderers are disgusting so called humans who needed to be treated exactly the same way. Disgusting pigs

    Why do people continue to bark. I guess being a dog like creature is something some can not help. The only sane thing to do is to put them down.

    No need to put your family down. A kennel would suffice for them

    And the barking continues. from the sound of the bark, I’m guessing this dog must be constipated.

      Again I don’t agree with u. From memory, u said u don’t trust politicians. Yes I know he’s not a politician now but he was and not just any politician but one that made it to the top, which means he was a very “good” politician. Funny how yank ex presidents develop a conscience after leaving politics

      2. H A T I see him as a humanitarian and a lesser evil that all the parties involved with alterior motives, call me a big woos but I am extremely compassionate and I dont stomach the violence too well, Assad is no angel and sooner or later he will get what is coming, may I ask what realistic outcome you forsee?

          Hopefully asshead is captured and is treated the same way he/it has treated innocent civilians.

          1. Fair enough I hope justice gets served as far as he is concerned, would you agree that this madness produced war crimes from both sides of the battle?

            That may be the case but you can’t equate the victim with the terrorists. That would be like saying the victims of 9/11 also committed crimes against humanity. Or the Jews in World War Two also committed war crimes. Genova conventions state one is allowed self defence. It’s like somebody in the street punches u for no reason and u punch him back. The only person in the wrong is the person who punched u.
