Kirby Acknowledges Iran Need to Be Involved in Future Talks on Political Solution in Syria

WASHINGTON- Further diplomatic discussions on ending the crisis in Syria could occur after the end of this week, the US State Department spokesman said on Monday, acknowledging that Iran would eventually need to be involved in the talks on Syria, Reuters reported.

 “At some point … we know there’s going to be a need to have conversation with Iran on political solution there,” spokesman John Kirby told reporters following talks in Vienna on Friday between U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and counterparts from Russia, Saudi Arabia and Turkey on a political settlement in Syria.

Kirby added John Kerry “is more than mindful that this is a complicated process. It’s gonna take some time, and it will, inevitably, involve some compromises by everybody, as we get there.”
