Kremlin gives no comments regarding Geneva II conference

MOSCOW. Jan 24 (Interfax) - The Kremlin is not commenting on the progress of the Geneva II conference being held in Switzerland's Montreux.

"I do not know what is happening there. I have not heard anything for now and, to be honest, I know nothing," Russian presidential aid Yury Ushakov told reporters in Moscow.

Ushakov also refused to comment on the statement of U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry that some countries were ready to send their peacekeepers to Syria if an agreement on peaceful settlements was reached.

"I have not seen this statement," Ushakov said.
