"This is no longer just one country in turmoil, this is a full-blown regional crisis."

"The humanitarian crisis in Syria has reached staggering heights. There are now 6.8 million people in need of immediate humanitarian assistance."

"The international response to the difficulties in Syria has been on the whole disappointing."

"The Syrian people see no direct U.S. assistance, and think that not only are we doing nothing, but then think that we're making false promises."
