UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said here on Wednesday that the situation in Syria " remains highly precarious," and he looks forward to an early action by the UN Security Council on his proposed expansion of the UN ceasefire observation mission in the Middle East country.
"On Syria, the situation remains highly precarious," Ban said when addressing reporters outside the UN Security Council Chambers after he sent a letter to the 15-nation UN body to call for more observers into Syria to monitor the week-old ceasefire in the Middle East country, which has been plunged into a crisis since March 2011.
"Despite the government's agreement to cease all violence, we still see a deeply troubling evidence that it continues," the secretary-general said.
The success of the UN observation mission in Syria requires the cooperation of the Syrian government to ensure "full freedom of movement" of the observers in the country, Ban said.
