lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, people across the world are watching the situation in Syria with horror and empathy for the plight of the Syrian people. What began as a popular uprising against Assad has descended into a civil war with religious, ethnic and sectarian characteristics. Unfortunately, it is increasingly the arena for a regional and international proxy war. On the one side is the brutal Assad regime, backed up by Iran and Russia. On the other side is an array of anti-Assad, often ethnically-based and divided opposition forces. Many of these are bankrolled and aided militarily by some of the most reactionary Arab states and Turkey, together with Western imperialism. Clearly, they do not provide a way forward for the Syrian people. Any military intervention would worsen the situation. It would not be taken in the interests of the Syrian people or peace and it could accelerate the process of Balkanisation and potentially inflame the whole region. Building a united working class movement to overthrow the Assad regime is a Herculean task, but it is the only way to successfully win democratic rights and fundamental social and economic change."@en1
