MOSCOW — Russia’s foreign minister said Saturday there was ‘‘no possibility’’ of persuading President Bashar Assad to leave Syria, leaving little hope for a breakthrough in the standoff.
Sergei V. Lavrov also said that opposition leaders’ insistence on Assad’s departure as a precondition for peace talks would come at the cost of ‘‘more and more lives of Syrian citizens’’ in a conflict that has already killed tens of thousands.
