there being ??

Hi, everyone

"I think the Russians certainly understood the importance of there being a political resolution in Syria and there being a process that pursues a political resolution," said the official, who requested anonymity to discuss the private meeting.

In this sentence, I cannot understand the meaning of "there being a political resolution" and " there being a process". why the author put "there being" in front of the "a political resolution" and " a process"??

thank you,
