The United States is prepared to work with Russia on the establishment of “no-fly zones” in Syria, US secretary of state Rex Tillerson said. “The United States is prepared to explore the possibility of establishing with Russia joint mechanisms for ensuring stability, including no-fly zones, on the ground ceasefire observers, and coordinated delivery of humanitarian assistance,” he said.
Tillerson appealed in particular to Russia to help create stability on the ground — or risk seeing progress in defeating IS undone — and to achieve a political settlement that charts a way forward for the Syrian people. He issued his statement on the sidelines of Mr Trump meeting Putin on Friday.
