Secretary of State John Kerry consulted with Henry Kissinger, the 90-year-old embodiment of Cold War foreign policy, before heading off to negotiate with his Russian counterpart over Syria’s chemical weapons.

After meeting yesterday with former Secretary Kissinger at the State Department, Kerry brought other U.S.-Russia specialists on his plane that left for Geneva for two days of meetings starting today with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, according to a U.S. official who asked not to be identified because he wasn’t authorized to comment.
