German FM: one of key issues at Syria’s Support Group meeting in Vienna is Aleppo
The International Syria Support Group meeting has begun in Austria’s capital of Vienna. "Today we will focus on how to guarantee the ceasefire conditions. And this concerns not only the city of Aleppo, but the whole area around it," German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier said Tuesday, Alalam reported. 

The ISSG, co-chaired by Moscow and Washington, was formed in November 2015, shortly after the beginning of the Syria peace talks, as a panel of countries seeking to end bloodshed in Syria. The European Union, the Arab League, China, Iran, Turkey, and the United Nations are also members of the group, Sputnik reported.

Major power talks on Syria aim to restore a truce across the country and get aid into besieged areas to encourage opposition groups to return to negotiations in Geneva, Germany’s Foreign Minister said on Tuesday, May 17, according to Reuters.

"We must find a way back into the political process ... It’s about improving the conditions for the ceasefire and humanitarian aid so as to win the opposition over to negotiate with the regime in Geneva," Frank-Walter Steinmeier said in Vienna ahead of a meeting of 17 countries backing the talks, PanARMENIAN.Net reported.
