Diplomacy - for now

Diplomatic Rollercoaster: 'US's Syria military option off table - but only for now'



First agreements have been reached in Geneva on Syria's chemical weapons - after a tiring three days of talks, Russian and American top diplomats say Damascus must reveal its arsenal within a week - and start disarming within a month. Manuel Ochsenreiter, German journalist focusing on the Syrian crisis, joins RT to discuss this issue.







'Syrian rebels have no chance to win without intervention'



Russia and the US have agreed on proposals to remove and destroy Syria's chemical weapons arsenal. It's hoped it could also give some impetus to the stalled attempts to find a peaceful end to the vicious civil conflict. Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and Secretary of State John Kerry outlined a six-point plan under which Damascus would hand over its chemical stockpiles. Richard Becker, anti-war activist with the international ANSWER coalition, joins RT to discuss the Russia-US agreement on ridding Syria of chemical weapons.
