France Summons Friends of Syria to Meeting

French President Francois Hollande and British Premier David Cameron called on Monday the so-called group of friends of Syria to a meeting in Paris on a yet-to-be-set date.

During a phone conversation, Hollande joined his European partners in demanding more pressure to be put on the government of President Bashar Al Assad.

A communiqué from the Elysee Palace blames the Al Assad government for the recent acts of violence in Hula, while Damascus puts the blame on terrorist armed groups supported from abroad.

The text adds that the Syrian issue will be discussed during a visit of Russian President Vladimir Putin to France on June 1st.
