The United Nations Special Envoy for Syria Staffan de Mistura attends a press conference in Geneva, Switzerland, on March 24, 2017. The United Nations Special Envoy for Syria Staffan de Mistura said Friday that while he didn't expect a breakthrough in the latest round of Syria peace talks, he would rely on headway made earlier this month to help pave the way towards brokering a political end to the Syrian conflict. The fifth and latest round of UN-mediated political talks resumed Friday in a bid to broker a political end to the six-year Syrian conflict which has killed over 310,000 people and displaced millions of others.
