The United Nations Security Council discussed the need to create a document on the situation in Syria, and its publication may take place in the coming days, Russian Ambassador to the United Nations Vassily Nebenzia said.
"We were talking about the need to work out a document by the Council, not today. I mean, nobody was ready for that today, but I think in the coming days, very hopefully sooner rather than later, we will see one," Nebenzia told reporters.
Syrian armed opposition groups captured Damascus on Sunday. Syrian Prime Minister Mohammad Ghazi al-Jalali said that he and 18 other ministers had decided to remain in the capital.
Jalali also said he was in contact with the leaders of militant groups that had entered the city.
The Russian Foreign Ministry said that Syrian President Bashar Assad had stepped down and left Syria after negotiations with some participants in the Syrian conflict.
