Syria opposition and government to meet face to face


(Vatican Radio) United Nations envoy Lakhdar Brahimi has announced that Syria's opposition and government will meet in the same room today, as part of the continuing peace talks in Montreux, near Geneva.

Mr Brahimi appears to have averted the collapse of the negotiations, after threats from Damascus to abandon the process.

The two sides have been blaming each other for a lack of progress over the last three days of meetings. Gordon Martin reports from Geneva. Listen RealAudioMP3
