Kerry in Geneva for Syria Talks.
BERMAN: Happening now. World leaders are gathering in Geneva hoping to resurrect a ceasefire that has all but collapsed in Syria. The United Nations is warning the situation in Aleppo there has turned catastrophic, this after a deadly air strike killed 50 people at a pediatric hospital. At least six of the dead were medical workers. Secretary of State John Kerry is blaming the bombing on the Syrian government, calling it a deliberate act. The Syrian regime and the Russians who are aiding the Syrians are denying any involvement. Let's go live to Moscow and bring in CNN's senior international correspondent Frederik Pleitgen. Fred, what are the Russians saying?</s>FREDERIK PLEITGEN, CNN SENIOR INTERNATIONAL CORRESPONDENT: Hey, John. Yes, certainly a very devastating situation there in Aleppo over the weekend. Some 250 civilians killed in the past 10 days alone. And it really looks as though the ceasefire in that part of Syria appears to be falling apart. Now the Russians, as you've said, have said they were not involved in any of these bombings. The Syrian regime also saying the same. However, groups on the ground saying they do believe that it was a Syrian government war plane that bombed that hospital. The big question now is for Secretary of State Kerry is how to get the ceasefire back on track. That's the reason he is in Geneva. And he has said that it's not going to get back on track if the Russians are not on board. Now the interesting thing is that at these meetings in Geneva, the Russians aren't even present. However, the secretary has said that they are in constant contact with the Russians. And the Russians apparently have said while they were earlier saying that they didn't want the Syrian government to get the ceasefire back on track, now they're saying they are in negotiations to try and do just that. So at least negotiations appear to be going on. The U.S. has said that they expected the Russians to use the influence that they have over the Assad regime to make sure that the bombings stop there in Aleppo. Because one thing that's clear to all sides, John, is that the ceasefire, if it falls apart in Aleppo, that could spell the end of any sort of cessation of hostilities in Syria as a whole and could lead to all-out fighting returning to that country very soon with all the devastating effects that we've seen over the past five years -- John.</s>BERMAN: And whatever break the people inside that country have had will come to an end. Frederik Pleitgen for us in Moscow, thanks so much.</s>KOSIK: So let's get an EARLY START on your money. U.S. stocks are hoping to make a turnaround from Friday's losses. Futures reporting slightly higher at the moment. Stocks suffered their worst week last week since February's freak-out. The Dow fell 56 points on Friday last week adding to the Thursday's triple-digit fall. Wall Street is coping with the worst stretch for corporate profits since the financial crisis. The dramatic fall in oil prices has really hit oil companies hard. ExxonMobil said its profits fell more than 60 percent for the first quarter. More companies are reporting their earnings this week. We're going to be hearing from names you may recognize. Sprint, Tesla and Kraft. After 17 tries and no winner, the current jackpot for the National Powerball is $348 million. Not bad. That amount is only available if a winner chooses to take the money over 30 years. The more popular lump sum option has a cash value just over $226 million. Not too shabby. The next drawing is Wednesday. But your chances of winning not so great. Each ticket has a 1 in 292 million shot. But I think I'm going to try with one ticket. One Starbucks customer in Chicago is very unhappy. So unhappy he's filing a lawsuit. Stacy Pincus filed a $5 million lawsuit against the coffee chain accusing it of using too much ice in its cold drinks. The suit claims that the number of ounces Starbucks advertises is only right once ice is added to the drink. For example, a Venti drink is advertised at 24 ounces. But the suit claims it only has 14 ounces of actual liquid. The rest is ice. Starbucks said, quote, "Our customers understand and expect that ice is an essential component of any iced beverage." Keep in mind, this is one person with this lawsuit. But kind of interesting. It's something I think we all can relate to for those of us who get these cold drinks.</s>BERMAN: I often sympathize with Starbucks. But I will say if you are getting iced coffee, you would think there will be ice in it.</s>KOSIK: Right. But not the entire cup. The entire cup should not be filled with ice. You want a little coffee in there to get your --</s>BERMAN: There is coffee in it, too, I suppose. You have to have both. All right. EARLY START continues right now.
