随着年底临近，对召开宪法委员会第一次会议的期待空高于以往任何时候。虽然在关于叙利亚问题的第十一次国际会议上，就组成委员会达成广泛共识方面不可能取得重大进展，但赤道几内亚共和国注意到，在12月18日举行的会议上，阿斯塔纳担保国同意为2019年初在日内瓦举行委员会第一次会议做必要的努力。
As the end of the year draws near, expectations about the convening of the first meeting of the constitutional committee are higher than ever. Although at the eleventh international meeting on Syria it was not possible to make significant progress towards a broad consensus on the formation of the committee, the Republic of Equatorial Guinea took note of the fact that at the meeting held on 18 December, the Astana guarantors agreed to make the efforts necessary for the first meeting of the committee to be held in Geneva in early 2019.
