土耳其警告：違反停火協議可能威脅敘利亞和談

Turkey is warning that violations of the cease-fire in Syria could jeopardize peace talks planned for later this month.

Russia and Turkey, which support opposing sides in the conflict, brokered the nationwide halt in fighting last week, building on their efforts to arrange the peace negotiations to be held in Astana, Kazakhstan.

"If we cannot stop the increasing violations, the Astana process could fail," Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu told the state-run Anadolu news agency Wednesday.

He blamed pro-government fighters, including the Lebanon-based Hezbollah militant group, for violating the cease-fire. Cavusoglu also said Russian officials were due to visit Turkey next week to discuss the framework for the peace talks.

Syria's main rebel groups have cited government violations of the truce in their decision to suspend participation in the peace talks process.土耳其警告說，在敘利亞違反停火協議的情況可能危及計劃本月晚些時候舉行的和談。

在衝突中支持敵對雙方的俄羅斯和土耳其通過斡旋，上星期達成了停火。兩國正在繼續努力，爭取在哈薩克斯坦首都阿斯塔納舉行和平談判。

土耳其外長恰武什奧盧星期三對國營的阿納多盧通訊社說：“如果我們不能制止正在不斷增加的違反停火的事件，在阿斯塔納的和談進程就可能失敗。”

恰武什奧盧指責包括黎巴嫩真主黨激進組織在內的親政府武裝人員違反停火協議。他還說，俄羅斯官員下星期將訪問土耳其，討論和平談判的框架。

敘利亞主要的反政府組織稱，敘利亞政府違反停火協議，因此決定暫不參加和平談判。
