Representative David Price (D-NC) issued the following statement following reports that the Obama Administration is considering a proposal by Russia to place Syria's chemical weapons under international control. "The atrocities committed by the Syrian regime demand a swift response that ensures these weapons are never used again, and I have always believed that military force should be used only as a last resort, once all plausible diplomatic avenues have been exhausted. Russia's proposal to place Syrian chemical weapons under international control is a potentially positive development, and I urge the Administration to act without delay to explore whether this proposal could lead to real verification and enforcement mechanisms that take Syria's chemical weapons off the battlefield, and allow the international community to hold the Assad regime accountable." # # # | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
