Syrians go to the polls in contested elections

President Bashar al-Assad has cast his ballot in parliamentary elections boycotted by the Syrian opposition

He has gone ahead with the poll despite the war which means millions of people are not voting.

With peace talks set to resume in Geneva, the embattled leader appears keen to gain leverage at the negotiating table. Britain and France dismissed the vote as a ‘flimsy facade’ and a ‘sham’. Germany said it wouldn’t recognise the results while the opposition said it was illegitimate.
