Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarid will meet his Russian and Turkish counterparts at the UN office and they are expected to announce the committee which will form Syria’s new constitution, said the sources who refused to be named due to restriction on talking to the media.

UN Special Envoy for Syria Staffan de Mistura will chair the meeting, Anadolu news agency reported.

During the Syrian peace conference in late January in the Russian city of Sochi, the formation of a committee to develop recommendations to amend the Syrian constitution was agreed upon.

On Friday, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said that Russia, Iran and Turkey will present a list of candidates for the Syrian Constitutional Committee to the UN.
