U.S. Secretary of State John F. Kerry and his Russian counterpart said Friday that they would try by the end of the month to set a date for another international peace conference on Syria, even as they continued to negotiate a possible solution to the Syrian government's possession of chemical weapons.
Kerry and Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov expressed hope that a date for a second peace conference in Geneva, to follow up one held in the Swiss city last year, could be decided in the margins of a U.N. General Assembly meeting due to be held at the end of this month.
