URGENT: US ‘On Verge’ of Ending Syria Talks with Russia

US Secretary of State John Kerry warned Thursday that Moscow was on the brink of ending its talks with Russia on the Syrian conflict over the assault on Aleppo.

“I think we are on the verge of suspending the discussion because, you know, it’s irrational in the context of the kind of bombing taking place, to be sitting there, trying to take things seriously,” Kerry said.

“There is no notion or indication of seriousness of purpose with what is taking place right now,” he told a conference in the US capital, a day after warning his Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov he would end talks unless Moscow halts the assault on Aleppo; AFP reported.
