re: “Serious political reforms that will result in free and fair presidential elections. Assad will not be allowed to run in future presidential elections and agrees to step down from power. . . “
So, Obama wants Assad to step down and then they’ll have “free elections”, and they’ll “unite” all the differing factions, and, the UN will oversee their chemical weapons and restructure their military - WOW! And, I guess unicorns and pigs will fly, too!
If Assad agrees to this, which I doubt, this is just going to be a repeat of Egypt or worse.
Don’t be too quick to put this aside....Putins been working it with Iran and Syria meetings himself...supposedly finalized diplomatic solution Monday....tend to think Obama knows well of this and will hold off until he knows what is what officially pretaining to that.
Figures Putin took the lead....Obama has no credibility with any International Leader now.
