\nsituation in Syria on Saturday in the Swiss city of Lausanne, would continue
\ncontacts in the near future, said Russia’s foreign minister Sergey Lavrov. He
\nadded that the parties at the talks stood for the launch of a political process
\nin Syria as soon as possible. The meeting was also attended by regional powers.
\nThe US suspended bilateral talks with Moscow over the latter’s support for
\nBashar al-Assad’s regime in the Aleppo offensive. According to the Syrian
\nObservatory for Human Rights, more than 300,000 people have been killed in the

\nin Bucharest has informed Romanian citizens travelling to or transiting Turkey
\nthat this country’s Parliament has endorsed a government decision to extend the
\nstate of emergency by another three months starting on October 19th.
\nUnder the circumstances and given that the security situation is still
\nunstable, in particular in and around Ankara, Istanbul and Izmir, as well as
\nother big cities in Turkey, the Romanian ministry has reiterated a warning for
\nRomanian citizens to remain cautious and vigilant and avoid involvement in
\ndemonstrations or other public events that may degenerate into violence. On
\nFriday, rockets landed in the Turkish province resort of Antalya, the favourite
\ntourist destination for Romanians holidaying in Turkey. <\/p>\n

\nruling party, they will decide whether the country continues to come closer to
\nthe European Union and NATO or moves in the direction of Russia. Prime minister
\nMilo Djukanovic’s party claims the
\nopposition is funded by Russia, an accusation the latter denies. On the other
\nhand, the opposition has accused the government of corruption and rising crime
\nrates. The Democratic Party of Socialists has been in power for 27 years in
\nMontenegro. We recall that some of this country’s territory came under NATO
\nbombardment while it was still part of Yugoslavia, in 1999. After its
\nseparation from Serbia, Montenegro moved closer to NATO and last year received
\nan invitation to join this organisation. The country’s links with Serbia
\nremain, however, close, as well as its cultural and commercial ties with Russia.
