WASHINGTON (Sputnik) — On September 9, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and US Secretary of State John Kerry announced a new peace plan for Syria that called for a ceasefire to come into force beginning on Monday.
"If at any point it is determined that there is a legal requirement, of course we are going to meet that requirement," Cook stated on Thursday. "We… are prepared to address those [issues] in close consultations with Congress as required."
If the new ceasefire in Syria lasts, Washington and Moscow will work together to establish the JIC, and carry out joint airstrikes against the Nusra Front terrorist group, according to the deal.
