The group of nations would like to see the safe return of Syrians who fled the country under the rule of President Bashar al-Assad, who was toppled at the weekend, the G7 will say.
Group of Seven leaders are willing to support a new Syrian government if the transition process respects the rule of law as well as religious and ethnic minorities in the country.
The G7 “is hopeful that all the opposition groups seeking a role in governing Syria will demonstrate their commitment to the rights of all Syrians,” according to a draft statement the G7 plans to issue later this week.
