- Bashar Al-Assad is responsible for Syria's economic meltdown, the US embassy in Syria said
LONDON: The Syrian regime must take irreversible steps to implement a political solution in the country or face further targeted sanctions and isolation, the US embassy in Syria said on Wednesday.
The embassy added that the US will continue targeted sanctions and increased economic pressure on the Assad regime until there is irreversible progress on the political process, including a nationwide ceasefire.
President Bashar Al-Assad is responsible for Syria's economic meltdown and he is squandering “tens of millions of dollars each month to fund a needless war against the Syrian people instead of providing for their basic needs,” the embassy added.
