US Secretary of State John Kerry is to go back to Europe next week for talks on the Syrian crisis and the so-called ‘peace’ process between Palestinian Authorities and the Zionist entity.The top US diplomat, who only arrived back from a two-week tour late Monday, will hit the road again for his 16th trip since he took office in February, heading to talks in Paris, London and Rome from Monday October 21 to Thursday.

In the French capital, he will meet with members of the Arab Peace Initiative to touch base on progress in the relaunched ‘peace’ talks, State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said.

He will also hold talks with the Saudi Foreign Minister Saud al-Faisal.
On Tuesday, there will be a meeting of the core group of countries making up the so-called Friends of Syria in London to review progress towards convening the Geneva peace conference, Psaki told reporters.

And in Rome, Kerry will meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to “discuss ongoing final-status negotiations with the Palestinians," she added.

Kerry, who has led efforts with Russia to find a political resolution to the brutal war in Syria, earlier reiterated his belief that "there is no military solution, absolutely not" to the Syrian conflict now in its third year, in which some 110,000 people have died.

"There is only a continued rate of destruction and creation of a humanitarian catastrophe for everybody in the region if the fighting continues," he told National Public Radio in an interview.

"So we are trying to move the process forward. I'll have meetings next Tuesday in London with the support group of the opposition," he said.
"We're working towards this Geneva conference, not that we know what the outcome is."
