anything less than full compliance by the regime in the event of noncompliance we have committed to impose measures under chapter seven within the u.n. security council all sides including rebel groups will be responsible for the safety of international inspectors and will have to provide free access to the sites well of course this does not mean every time a violation is reported actions will be taken automatically will first have to verify and review such reports it's not really because there are a lot of complications along these surrounding this issue and we have to be very careful of what russia is still wary of us threats of course but more than welcomes the u. turn in war rhetoric from the white house obama seemed more in their brand tack at the r word and he was forced to back off on a policy that very a week ago he was committed to launch a bombing campaign and i think the russian leadership and the american people have
