"Mr President, various scenarios can certainly be proposed for a solution to the crisis, but none of them would be easy, because the international community is so divided on this issue. We had an example of this recently, when on Sunday, Hillary Clinton dismissed Russia’s proposal for a UN resolution, calling it pointless and ‘without teeth’. Russia, on the other hand, still disagrees with the West’s call for al-Assad to relinquish power, and it also opposes additional sanctions against Syria, and Iran too.
Here, many of the Members have stated that extremist movements, jihadists, have become entangled in this war, and it is also possible that this crisis will spread very quickly to neighbouring countries. In a way, however, it is outsiders that should become involved and bring about a ceasefire, during which it would be possible to start to solve this crisis politically.
It is good that Baroness Ashton mentioned here how Syria’s neighbouring countries, Turkey, and Jordan too, have taken in growing streams of refugees. We must also do something to deliver humanitarian aid to the region."@en1
