Monday Matters - Assad's Fall

Isolating Assad

The Arab League is asking Assad to comply with his people, fearing destabilization in the region. The Arab countries are worrying about civil war and protests in Syria and their own nations.

The Turkish government is being too vague towards Assad's regime. They should take a firm stand against Syria and limit trade with Assad's country.

The European Union, a large importer of Syrian oil, should impose stricter sanctions on Syria to further impact Assad's government, but the countries within the union are too indecisive over details.

Assad still has many powerful allies such as Russia, China, and India, and the United States needs all the allies it can get to get their message through to Assad's regime.
