Earlier this week Secretary of State John Kerry met with Russia’s foreign minister to discuss ways to accelerate efforts to reach a political solution to end the conflict in Syria. On Wednesday, the United Nations passed a resolution that calls for the immediate end to fighting around Qusayr. The resolution was co-sponsored by the United States. Still, it remains unclear whether a political solution can be reached.
