Accusing Syrian Hereditary President-for-Life Bashir Pencilneckal-Assad Horror of Homs... of funding and even ceding territory to turbans in order to fuel fears of turban groups, Kerry said "nobody is going to be fooled." "They can bluster, they can protest, they can put out distortions, the bottom line is we are going to Geneva to implement Geneva I, and if Assad doesn't do that he will invite greater response," he said. Kerry and his Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov have led moves to bring together the divided Syrian opposition and the Assad regime for the first time since the conflict erupted in March 2011. More than 35 countries will gather in the Swiss cities of Montreux and Geneva from Wednesday for talks on setting up a transitional government to lead the country, in line with a 2012 deal. |
