A member of the Houran Reform Commission, Fadi al-Asimi said that the Commission rejected a proposal by the Russians to meet with them on a deal on the southern region.

Al-Asami said in a voice recording used by Syria Call "Nedaa Syria" that he had received a phone call from a person who claimed to be an interpreter, Russian officer Alexander Ivanov, who was in charge of reconciliations and asked him to hold an urgent meeting in the town of Mahaja.

Al-Shami stressed that he refused to hold the meeting in Mahaja because it is located within the control areas of the Syrian regime, and required the release of detainees and the return of basic services of electricity, flour and fuel at an appropriate price, before entering into any talks.

The Assad regime and its allies promote to launch a military attack on the southern region, calling on the revolutionary factions to hold "reconciliations", but those factions decided their choice and announced that they decided to hold to the end.

The Italian news agency quoted sources in the Syrian opposition as saying that an agreement would be reached to open the Niseeb border crossing with Jordan and its administration by the civil servants of the Syrian regime and the opposition, while maintaining the military control map as it is today.

It is noteworthy that the "Reform Commission" was founded two and a half years ago by a group of dignitaries and talents in Houran, and aims to resolve conflicts and solve tribal and clan problems in the southern region.
