The Geneva peace talks on Syria, also known as Geneva III, were intended peace negotiations between the Syrian government and opposition in Geneva under the auspices of the UN. Although formally started on 1 February 2016,[1] they were formally suspended only two days later, on 3 February 2016.
The talks, prepared by the International Syria Support Group (ISSG), were intended to resolve the Syrian Civil War.[2]
