Syria talks underway in Astana

Peace talks between the Syrian government and members of the country's
opposition are underway in Kazakhstan's capital Astana.

The conference brokered by Russia, Turkey and Iran marks the first
time Syria's warring factions have met since United Nations backed
talks broke down early last year.

But it's been announced that government and opposition delegations
will not meet face-to-face.

William Denselow reports from Moscow.
