Live: Foreign ministers briefing on Syria

France, Britain and the US will seek a "robust" UN resolution for Syria's removal of chemical weapons, French President Francois Hollande says.

In a deal brokered by Russia and the US, Syria has agreed to reveal its stockpile within a week and eliminate the chemical arsenal by mid-2014.

If it fails to comply, the deal could be enforced by a UN resolution, with the use of force as a last resort.

The US had threatened strikes on Syria over a chemical attack in Damascus.

President Bashar al-Assad's government denies having carried out the attack on 21 August and blames rebels fighters instead.

Mr Hollande and his foreign minister, Laurent Fabius, held talks on Syria with British Foreign Secretary William Hague and US Secretary of State John Kerry in Paris on Monday.

They agreed there had to be a "precise timetable" for the dismantling of weapons in Syria, the French president said after the meeting.

Syria recently agreed to join the global Chemical Weapons Convention. It will come under the treaty from 14 October, the UN announced.

The framework deal was announced on Saturday after three days of talks in Geneva by Mr Kerry and Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov.

Syrian Reconciliation Minister Ali Haidar welcomed the agreement, calling it a "victory for Syria achieved thanks to our Russian friends".
