El CICR y la ayuda humanitaria en Siria
The International Committee of the Red Cross says it is in talks with "all those concerned" in Syria's conflict to negotiate a ceasefire.
The group says it wants to negotiate a truce in the most affected areas to allow it to deliver aid packages.
ICRC spokesman Bijan Farnoudi said the group was "discussing several possibilities" to enable humanitarian aid to be delivered.
Thousands have died in an 11-month uprising against the government.
The aim of the discussions was "to facilitate swift Syrian Arab Red Crescent and ICRC access to the people in need," Mr Farnoudi said.
"The content of the discussions we are having with the Syrian authorities and all those involved in the fighting remains bilateral and confidential" he said.
The ICRC has been delivering food and medicine to civilians in Syria since the start of the uprising against President Bashar al-Assad.
Human rights groups believe more than 7,000 people have been killed.
The Syrian government says at least 2,000 members of the security forces have died fighting militants.
