They also spoke on steps that can be taken by the international community, notably the UN, to ensure an orderly political transition in Syria, the delivery of humanitarian aid, and the country’s reconstruction in the wake of the collapse of the Assad regime, which fell over the weekend after a 10-day offensive by anti-regime forces.
