MOSCOW: US Secretary of State John Kerry brought his campaign to end the Syrian civil war to Moscow on Tuesday, where a meeting with President Vladimir Putin could decide the fate of peace talks. Kerry first held talks with his usual sparring partner Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, but the success of his trip will depend on the later rare Kremlin meeting with Putin.
"I think the world benefits when powerful nations with a long history with each other have the ability to be able to find the common ground," Kerry said as he sat down with Lavrov. "And today I hope we will be able to find some common ground."
