GENEVA- US Secretary of State John Kerry flew into Geneva on Friday for a new round of talks with Russia on a Syrian ceasefire, with US officials saying they believed a deal was still possible, but warning that the talks could not go on forever.
Senior State Department officials briefing reporters on Kerry's flight played down the prospect of a final breakthrough with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov on Friday, although they said "steady progress" had been made in recent weeks.
"We've been taking issues off the table because we've reached an understanding on them and continue to have some issues that remain outstanding and that we have been unable to close," one official said.
