Absolute defeat of isis, as well as all the other terrorists. this is our common objective. it is still in force, and we have seen that this has been reaffirmed to date as well. apart from syria and fighting terrorism in the region, we also have another political challenge to seek a political solution to the syrian crisis, the u.s., and russia have been at the forefront over the recent years at finding solutions at rallying all the parties concerned. external play is bringing them together at th...

Will not be part of that future. if the cease-fire negotiations become effective towards achieving a durable cease-fire, then the geneva process has the opportunity to accelerate. to date it has not produced much progress. its also clear russia failed to uphold the agreements entered into under multiple u.n. security council resolutions. these agreements stipulated russia as the guarantor of a syria free of chemical weapons. they would also locate, secure and destroy all such armaments in syria....
