ISTANBUL, Nov 29 (Reuters) - The international community may decide a buffer zone is needed in Syria if hundreds of thousands of people try to flee violence there, Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said.

The Syrian government needs to find a way to make peace with its own people and Damascus still has a chance to accept international observers proposed by the Arab League, Davutoglu said in an interview with the television broadcaster Kanal 24. (Reporting by Ece Toksabay; Writing by Daren Butler)
