It is the responsibility of the West to eliminate the WMD. Syria is required to point out all the WMD sites and allow inspection by OPCW after which they may be destroyed outside of Syria.probably too early to hail the resolution as a victory of "deft diplomacy" or statecraft. is Assad regime financially and technically capable of disposing of the chem. weapons, within the time frame (? 9 mon. fm now!) while the civil war is raging? the amount and manpower needed sounds hefty for a war torn Syria. so far only (?) Switzerland and China commit to contributing a fragment, and Russia"¦ also its progress has to b reviewed monthly. so still pretexts ahead for West attacks.
more practically Assad (and his allies) shall make use of the borrowed time for more battlefield gains and striking "political reconcilliation" with "some of " the opposition which has experienced internal splits in the prolonged war.
