Kerry, Lavrov Continue Geneva Meetings on Syria
September 13, 2013
GENEVA — U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry continues talks with his Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov in Geneva on Friday about how to put Syria’s chemical weapons under international control.
The United Nations says the meetings on Friday will also include international Syria envoy Lakhdar Brahimi, who has been pushing for an international peace conference to end Syria’s civil war.
The top Diplomats from Washington and Moscow began meeting Thursday to go over a Russian proposal that would allow Syria’s government to give up its chemical weapons in a bid to avoid a U.S. military strike.
