Ammon News - AMMONNEWS - The Syrian capital of Damascus was two to three weeks away from falling to terrorists when Russia intervened in support of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said at a news conference on Tuesday.

He added that Russia will continue to support Syria as he has information that some European countries were considering wrecking Syria peace talks because they felt left out.

Lavrov, speaking to journalists, said he hoped European countries would not make attempts to wreck the talks.
