Russia and the US have reached an understanding on a majority of issues concerning Syria, the Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said.
He noted that daily contacts between the Russian and US diplomats, military and intelligence agencies continue "to develop this algorithm of the fight against terrorism".
"Virtually all components of this task are already clear, an understanding has been reached on most issues. The most important thing is that any agreements with the Americans on practical actions, on coordination of operations against terrorists will not be implemented if our American partners do not keep their promise to dissociate themselves from terrorists, above all, the Jabhat al-Nusra," TASS cited him mas saying.
"Many of the groups considered acceptable by the US have actually affiliated with Jabhat al-Nusra, while Jabhat al-Nusra is using them to avoid being attacked," Russia’s top diplomat explained.
