Syria Offered Deal by US
The United States has offered Syrian President Bashar al-Assad a deal to end his regime’s international isolation if it agrees to a list of concessions.
Citing senior US and Arab officials, The Times newspaper said the latest deal — which hinges on four key demands — could save Syria from the threat of looming international sanctions.
Under the deal, The Times said Washington had four main requirements:
- Syria must cooperate fully and adhere to any demands by the UN inquiry into Hariri’s death.
- If any members of the regime are named as suspects they would have to be questioned and stand trial.
- The Syrians must stop interfering in Lebanon, where they have been accused of a series of recent bomb attacks.
- Washington wants Damascus to cease alleged recruiting, funding and training of volunteers to take part in the violent insurgency in Iraq.
