The regime wants to reach some kind of agreement because they want to stay in power. The problem may be that Syria has nothing to bargain.

You have not protected the people of Egypt, you have protected the people in power.

Syria wants to show it has time to think about such issues.

The U.S. and France don't want a regime change. They want the actions of the regime to change. A regime change could mean chaos and create more instability and more anti-U.S. and anti-Israeli feelings across the region.

There is no chaos. There is no probability, zero, for a coup.

In the street this morning they followed me. This is new.
