Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and his US counterpart John Kerry agreed during talks in Zurich that Daesh and the Nusra Front (Jabhat al-Nusra) would not be part of the proposed Syrian ceasefire, as the fight against the jihadists would go on until their complete annihilation.
"The main thing is that we came to an unambiguous conclusion that the UN Security Council Resolution 2254 will remain the main basis for us to move forward," Russia Today quoted Lavrov as having told journalists in Switzerland on Wednesday.
During the negotiations, the two diplomats "discussed practical steps to ensure the conditions for a ceasefire" in Syria , the Russian foreign minister added.
