French Official: "Time Running Out" for Syrian President
(Asharq Alawsat-UK) Michel Abu Najm - A high-ranking French official said Wednesday that UN investigator Detlev Mehlis "might not wait until 15 December" to present his findings to the Security Council. He described the Syrian regime's behavior as "letting time pass and playing tricks" on Mehlis and "refusing to cooperate." "Syria should realize it is digging its own grave," he said. So far, Paris "had opposed regime change and advised the U.S. not to follow this route," but it "will find itself in a difficult position and will not be able to hold on to this position if Syria did not" begin to cooperate fully with the UN investigation, he warned.
