US Plays Down Reports Of Attack On Syria

Middle East Newsline | January 18 2005

WASHINGTON [MENL] -- The United States does not appear to have any plans to attack Syria.

Officials said the Bush administration has agreed to an effort to undermine the regime of Syrian President Bashar Assad. But they said President George Bush has not approved any military attack on Syria.

"I don't think anybody's talking about counter-attacks or talking military attacks on Syrian targets," Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage said.

Armitage returned from talks in Damascus with Assad in early January. He said the Assad regime has improved security and was stopping the flow of Islamic volunteers into Iraq sent to fight the U.S.-led coalition.
