UN envoy expects no miracles but hopeful on Syria talks

The UN Special Envoy for Syria said Friday he hopes the Syrian peace talks due to restart on Monday in Geneva lead to progress, but he cautioned against expectations of a "miracle or breakthrough."

"No one expects that this meeting here next week will produce a miracle or a breakthrough that's not what this is about," Geir Pedersen said at a briefing for journalists at the UN in Geneva in an answer to a question from Anadolu Agency.
