China is set to invite members of the Syrian government and opposition members to Beijing for talks aimed at ending the civil war in the country. The initiative is due to the apparent lack of progess from the current talks. China's Foreign Minister Wang Yi addressed the Chinese media after attending the Third Foreign Ministers' meeting of the International Syria Support Group in New York last week.
