US, Russia to ‘consult’ again friday on Syria ceasefire

"We have exchanged ideas with the Russians and we plan to consult tomorrow with respect to those ideas," Kerry told reporters on Thursday.

John Kerry also noted that the United States still believes that the process established during the Geneva talks is the best way to resolve the Syrian civil war.

"The United States continues to believe that the objectives and the processes laid out in Geneva earlier this month were and are the right ones," Kerry stated on Thursday. "The renewal of the cessation of hostilities, the resumption of aid deliveries, the isolation of Nusra [Front] and Daesh and the beginning of a negotiating path make possible the restoration of a united Syria."

"The question now is whether there remains any real chance at moving forward, because it’s clear we cannot continue on the same path any longer," Kerry added.
