(Reuters) - Russia will propose a new international meeting on the Syrian crisis in Moscow and that Syria should be represented, Interfax news agency quoted an unidentified source close to this weekend's talks in Geneva as saying on Saturday.
Russia and Western powers are at loggerheads over the international community's role in Syria, with foreign ministers and international diplomats trying to reach common grounds in Geneva for a peace deal in the country.
