Kerry, Russian foreign minister discuss Syria chemical weapons

WASHINGTON | Mon Sep 9, 2013 7:05pm BST

(Reuters) - Secretary of State John Kerry and Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov discussed Syria's chemical weapons in a phone call on Monday, a State Department spokeswoman said.

The call came after Russia proposed that Syria put its chemical weapons stock under international control to try to avert potential U.S. military strikes over a gas attack.
