The Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman, Maria Zakharova, said at her weekly press briefing that the question of a meeting between the Syrian opposition and the government is not proceeding very fast, but there is hope of achieving some progress after the talks of the International Syria Support Group in New York.
"We hope that all the member countries of the international support group will be able to share their experience on this issue on December 18 in New York," Zakharova added.
