WASHINGTON, January 30 (RIA Novosti) – US officials said Thursday
that they are “concerned” about delays by Syrian President Bashar
Assad’s government in handing over its chemical weapons to be destroyed
under a deal brokered by Russia and the United States.
“It is the Assad regime’s responsibility to transport those chemicals safely to facilitate removal. We expect them to meet their obligation to do so,” White House spokesman Jay Carney told reporters aboard Air Force One.
