US Secretary of State John Kerry will visit Russia next week to discuss Syria, after Moscow began withdrawing most of its forces from the country.

    Kerry said Russia's move, along with the opening of UN-mediated Syria talks in Geneva, may be "the best opportunity" to end the conflict, according to the (BBC). "Today, as we mark the fifth anniversary of the start of this horrific war, we may face the best opportunity that we have had in years to end it," Kerry said on Tuesday. 

    He spoke of an "important phase" in the Geneva talks. Kerry is expected to go to Moscow some time after Tuesday when he returns from a trip to Cuba.
