United Nations, June 26 (TIWN) UN special envoy for Syria, Geir Pedersen has expressed regrests over the lack of progress made in the country's political process even after a decade of war.

"I think we are all disappointed that we are not making real advances on the political track to implement Resolution 2254, including constitutional reform and elections administered under UN supervision, he told a Security Council briefing on Friday.  "Regrettably, the gulf of mistrust between the parties and the complexity of the situation on the ground makes early progress toward a comprehensive settlement unlikely."
