Russia calls for an international Syria summit

Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Gennady Gatilov, on Monday, ahead of UN Secretary General Ban Ki Moon’s visit to Moscow, called for an emergency international summit on Syria and protested the idea of a no-fly zone in Syria. In response, Syrian Information Minister Omran Zoabi said Syria needs to know the specific agenda of the summit to decide whether or not it should take part. France’s Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius was skeptical about the idea and said it is “very difficult” to hold a summit with both the Syrian government and the Syrian opposition.
