Syrian opposition negotiator says no date set to resume peace talks

BEIRUT - A member of the Syrian opposition's High Negotiations Committee on Thursday denied there was any date for a resumption of peace talks with the government after Russia's deputy foreign minister was quoted as saying they could happen at the end of September.
"We deny the existence of any such dates," said George Sabra, adding that a resumption of talks was contingent upon developments on the ground in Syria, which he said now involved "nothing positive".
