Syrian deputy foreign minister Faisal Meqdad said the opposition has to let go of its "dream" of a transitional government, pointing out that it would amount to a coup d'etat.
In statements carried by ABC news, the deputy foreign minister said that such an idea "will never be acceptable."
He added division among the opposition "makes it impossible to negotiate a viable agreement."
The UN envoy for Syria hosted a delegation from the main opposition group as indirect peace talks involving envoys from President Bashar Assad's government resume in Geneva.
Staffan de Mistura and members of opposition Supreme Negotiations Committee were to speak to reporters after Wednesday's start of the third round of talks that began in February but have been suspended twice for breaks.
