Les dossiers bahreiniens et syriens lies pour la première fois explicitement. Reste a voir la reaction des autorites bahreiniennes, farouchement opposées à toute médiation étrangère (même golfienne) depuis le début de la crise.
Russia promised to mediate between Bahrain’s ruling Sunni Muslim royal family and the majority Shiite opposition in talks aimed at ending two years of unrest in the Gulf country neighboring Saudi Arabia.
“Russia will continue to hold contacts with the kingdom’s leaders as well as representatives of opposition groups, in firm support of efforts to resolve internal problems through a national consensus in the interests of all Bahrainis,” the Foreign Ministry in Moscow said in an e-mailed statement today.
“We are certain that it’s possible, with enough political will, to ease the tensions and resolve the causes of the conflict in Bahrain as well as in other countries in the region,” the Russian foreign ministry said.
