Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault

G7 foreign ministers insist there can be no peace solution in war-torn Syria with President Bashar al-Assad in power, France's Foreign Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault said Tuesday.
The top diplomats, meeting as US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson readies for crunch talks in Moscow, were agreed that "no future in Syria is possible with Bashar al-Assad", Ayrault told reporters at the G7 meeting in Italy.
