国連安保理はジュネーブ合意(2012年6月30日)とウィーン合意(2015年10月30日、11月14日)に基づくシリア紛争解決に向けた停戦・移行プロセスを承認する決議第2254号を全会一致で採択(2015年12月18日)

国連安保理は、シリア紛争における停戦プロセスと政治移行プロセスの行程について定めたウィーン会議でのISSG(国際シリア支援グループ)の二つの合意(10月30日、11月14日)を追認する決議(2254号)を全会一致で採択した。

安保理決議第2254号は、2012年6月30日のジュネーブ合意に基づき、シリア人主導のシリア人による政治移行プロセスを支持し、国連事務総長に対して、ウィーンでのISSGの合意に従い、2016年1月初めを目処にシリア政府と反体制派の交渉を開始させるよう求めている。

また、政治移行プロセスに関しては、交渉開始後6ヶ月を目処に「信頼できる包括的・非宗派的な(移行)政府」を樹立し、新憲法制定の日程と行程を確定し、その後18ヶ月を目処に、新憲法制定の自由で公正な選挙の実施、新憲法制定を実現することへの支持を表明している。

一方、シリア国内での停戦プロセスについては、政治プロセス(移行プロセス)と並行させることを承認し、加盟国、とりわけISSG諸国にその実現に向けた努力を増大させるよう求めている。

また、国連事務総長に対して、決議採択後1ヶ月以内に停戦監視のしくみに関して安保理に報告することを定めている。

そのうえで、ダーイシュ(イスラーム国)、シャームの民のヌスラ戦線、アル=カーイダあるいはダーイシュとつながりのあるその他すべての個人・組織、そして安保理やISSGが指定・合意するそのほかのテロ組織のテロ活動を抑止するようすべての加盟国に求めている。

国連安保理決議2245号採択後、ジョン・ケリー米国務長官、ロシアのセルゲイ・ラブロフ外務大臣、スタファン・デミストゥラ・シリア問題担当国連アラブ連盟共同特別代表は共同記者会見を開いた。

会見でケリー国務長官は、アサド大統領の進退に関して「国際社会のみなが必ずしも合意に達していないが、ISSGの大多数は、彼がシリアを統合するだけの力も信頼も失ったと見ている」と述べた。

これに対して、ラブロフ外務大臣は「シリア国民だけが、ジュネーブとウィーンでの諸合意を承認した国連安保理決議に従って自らの未来を決することができる。これは、外国が解決策を押しつけようとしてきたことへの明確な答えだ」と述べた。

また、一部の外国諸国がシリアにおける体制転換を要求していることに関しては、「イラク、リビア、イエメンの教訓から学ばせねばならない…。外国が決定を押しつけるいかなる試みも回避されねばならない…。アサドが去らなければ解決策はないという者は近視眼的であり、まずダーイシュ(イスラーム国)が根絶される必要がある」と強調した。

さらに、シリアの反体制派を「テロ組織」と「合法的な反体制派」に峻別することについては、ダーイシュとシャームの民のヌスラ戦線をテロ組織とみなすことにコンセンサスはあると述べるとともに、「ダマスカスのロシア大使館を標的とした者、シリアの首都を砲撃する者、そして似たようなことを行う者」もテロ組織とみなす必要があると付言した。

the Syrian Arab Republic, and to the purposes and principles of the Charter of
the United Nations,

Expressing its gravest
concern at the continued suffering of the Syrian people, the dire and
deteriorating humanitarian situation, the ongoing conflict and its persistent
and brutal violence, the negative impact of terrorism and violent extremist
ideology in support of terrorism, the destabilizing effect of the crisis on the
region and beyond, including the resulting increase in terrorists drawn to the
fighting in Syria, the physical destruction in the country, and increasing
sectarianism, and underscoring that the situation will continue to
deteriorate in the absence of a political solution,

Recalling its demand
that all parties take all appropriate steps to protect civilians, including
members of ethnic, religious and confessional communities, and stresses
that, in this regard, the primary responsibility to protect its population lies
with the Syrian authorities,

Reiterating that the
only sustainable solution to the current crisis in Syria is through an
inclusive and Syrian-led political process that meets the legitimate
aspirations of the Syrian people, with a view to full implementation of the
Geneva Communiqué of 30 June 2012 as endorsed by resolution 2118 (2013),
including through the establishment of an inclusive transitional governing body
with full executive powers, which shall be formed on the basis of mutual
consent while ensuring continuity of governmental institutions,

Encouraging, in this
regard, the diplomatic efforts of the International Syria Support Group (ISSG)
to help bring an end to the conflict in Syria,

commitment of the ISSG, as set forth in the Joint Statement on the outcome of
the multilateral talks on Syria in Vienna of 30 October 2015 and the Statement
of the ISSG of 14 November 2015 (hereinafter the “Vienna Statements”), to
ensure a Syrian-led and Syrian-owned political transition based on the Geneva Communiqué
in its entirety, and emphasizing the urgency for all parties in Syria to work
diligently and constructively towards this goal,

Urging all parties to
the UN-facilitated political process to adhere to the principles identified by
the ISSG, including commitments to Syria’s unity, independence, territorial
integrity, and non-sectarian character, to ensuring continuity of governmental
institutions, to protecting the rights of all Syrians, regardless of ethnicity
or religious denomination, and to ensuring humanitarian access throughout the
country,

Encouraging the
meaningful participation of women in the UN-facilitated political process for
Syria,

goal to bring together the broadest possible spectrum of the opposition, chosen
by Syrians, who will decide their negotiation representatives and define their
negotiation positions so as to enable the political process to begin, taking note

in particular the usefulness of the meeting in Riyadh on 9-11 December 2015,
