Describing the situation in Syria as getting "increasingly complicated and dangerous", India today put its weight behind next month's Geneva 2 conference saying it offers the "most promising" prospect to resolve the two-year-old conflict.
New Delhi also condemned the alleged use of chemical weapons in Syria by both the government troops and the rebels, and supported a UN probe into the alleged incidents.
"The Syrian situation on the ground is getting increasingly complicated and dangerous. There are various factors attributed to that," government sources said.

They said that with European Union announcing easing of arms embargo and Russia stating that it will continue to supply sophisticated weapons to the Syrian government, the question about these arms possibly falling into wrong hands arises.

"As of now, the most promising prospect seems to be US- Russia sponsored conference - Geneva 2 - which will be under the auspices of the UN," they said.
