U.S. and Russian
military officials have held talks in Geneva ahead of a wider U.N.
meeting on Friday aimed at trying to secure a cessation of hostilities
in Syria, diplomats said. The
unannounced bilateral meeting was aimed at narrowing positions before
the two powers jointly chair a United Nations meeting on the issue, they
said, declining to give details. "The
idea of the whole exercise is for Russia and the United States to have a
joint view," a diplomat close to the process told Reuters.
