For the first time, French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius hinted at the possibility of sharing the Syrian regime forces in efforts to fight the terrorist Daesh organization.

In a radio interview with RTL, Fabius said the confrontations shall be maintained on two scales which are shelling and air raids, on the one hand, and field battles in which the Free Syrian Army and Arab-Sunni forces are engaged, on the other.

The French top diplomat, meanwhile, did not exclude the Syrian regime forces from the second party.

Defeating Daesh will require air strikes and "forces on the ground, which can’t be ours, but which must be the Free Syrian Army, Arab Sunni forces, and why not forces of the regime," he said.

The statements came one day following the visit of French President Francois Holland to Moscow, for talks with his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin, where he spoke about the possibility of forming an expanded and unified international alliance against Daesh.
