Russia said it was looking with optimism at Saturday's Syria crisis talks in Geneva after being told by U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton that the Syrians themselves should decide the makeup of their new government.
"I can confidently say that we have a very good chance tomorrow in Geneva to find a common denominator and mark a path forward," Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said after the talks, adding that Clinton had agreed the Syrian governing lineup "can only be decided by the Syrians themselves."
