Salah Jalal, the director of the opposition Umma party, said that "the party welcomes the meeting and that it is in line with the instructions of the Umma party and its efforts for a comprehensive political solution which emphasize the necessity of the serious work for the national agenda to end the war and to achieve democratic change through a political agreement."

Jalal also urged on the quickness of convening the preliminary meeting which leads to the collective national conference to recognize the principles of the full political solution to be the practical framework for the peaceful initiatives especially the joint initiative which gathers all the parties to face their national duties.
