Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said Thursday he saw good prospects of the Syrian settlement after the recent talks in Astana.
The Syria talks were held in Astana on January 23-24. They were initiated by Russian President Vladimir Putin, who proposed establishing in Astana a site of the Syrian peace process in addition to Geneva.
The proposal was supported by the presidents of Turkey and Kazakhstan. As a result of the talks held in the capital of Kazakhstan, Russia, Iran and Turkey decided to establish a trilateral mechanism to monitor the ceasefire in Syria.
“Not bad,” Lavrov said when asked what the prospects of the Syrian settlement were after the meeting in the capital of Kazakhstan, Sputnik reported.
