International Negotiations On Syria

US Secretary of State John Kerry and Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov met in Geneva today for an expected push towards resuming peace talks for war-ravaged Syria.

Tense negotiations have begun on a proposed U.N. resolution that would put Syria's chemical weapons under international control and end a diplomatic stalemate over a deadly Aug. 21 poison gas attack, a French official said on Wednesday.

The international envoy tasked with pushing to end Syria's civil war said the situation is still "worrying" after discussing the crisis with President Bashar Assad on Monday. The remarks gave no indication of progress toward a negotiated solution to the conflict.
