"When an article or two of any standing constitution are amended, it becomes a new constitution. It will be subjected to a referendum. We didn’t only speak about discussing the current constitution, and we don’t exclude discussing a new constitution as these are the rules of procedures ... We are committed to them, thereby, before going to a new constitution, we should discuss the current one, which has witnessed a popular approbation after a referendum" Muallem said in an exclusive interview with Russia's RT Arabic television news network on the sidelines of the 74th session of the United Nations

He added, "But if we don’t reach an agreement with the other side, we don’t mind discussing another constitution, but not a ready-made one."

The top Syrian diplomat further noted that the Damascus government abides by the principles of the constitutional body announced a few days ago, and does not accept any violation, as it views the new committee a significant achievement for the Syrian nation.
