Griffiths noted in a written report: "we have been discussing these issues for over a year now ... Unfortunately, we are not where we would like to be in reaching a deal."
He further said: "I will keep engaging the parties to the conflict and all involved and concerned actors and stakeholders to offer them opportunities to find common grounds to help advance the peace efforts."
