BEIRUT
Former Spokesman for the Syrian Foreign Ministry, Jihad Makdissi said that he quit his post recently due to violence and polarization which left no room for politics and diplomacy in Syria.
In a written statement released on Wednesday, Makdissi stressed that the polarization in Syria reached a "destructive" point and, as such, he could not stay longer in Syria.
The Syrian people, with their legitimate demands, attracted hearts, Makdissi underlined.
Makdissi quit his post in December 2012. It is not known where he is presently staying out of Syria.
