Russian President Dmitry Medvedev said some Syrian opposition members can be described as terrorists, adding that those who are chanting slogans against the Syrian government are diverse.

In an interview with the French based channel, Euro news Network, Medvedev stressed that "those who are chanting slogans against the Syrian government are not adherents of the pure European democracy but vastly diverse, and some of them extremists, some can be dubbed terrorists. Therefore, the situation cannot be called ideal."

"Russia is ready to support diverse stances, yet these stances should not be based on a one-sided view, but should rather give a signal to all parties to sit to the table and agree on stopping bloodshed," he confirmed.
 
Expressing Russia\'s interest in the Syrian situation given, Medvedev clarified that "Moscow is a staunch friend of Syria."

Meanwhile, an informed Russian source said that the Russian Foreign Ministry has no intention of meeting representatives of the Syrian opposition during their visit to Moscow.
 
An informed source in Moscow was quoted as saying that the "Syrian opposition representatives came to Moscow at the invitation of invented social organizations and the Federation Council of Russia."
