>> i have no doubt of that, senator, because the opposition will insist upon it. >> will the united states insist upon it? >> senator, we will absolutely support the opposition putting that forward. the united states, senator, is not negotiating. >> i understand that. we are prepared to use our military to stop the use of chemical weapons. are we prepared to use our military might to make sure that those who did are held responsible for their actions? >> absolutely, and i've already talked about the resources we are deploying to help make that happen. >> this humanitarian disaster in syria today, one third of their population has been displaced. 2 million are externally displaced. half a million internally displaced. the challenge of getting into serious to help those who are victimized is challenging. what support are we receiving from the international community to help deal with the humanitarian crisis during this civil war? >> there has been a massive mobilization of humanitarian assistance. the u.s. is by far the leader. but there are substantial contributions, especially from from eu

they said it would be preferable to have one opposition united speaking under the same umbrella or attendinger the same umbrella, which is actually not the position of either syria or russia. they seem to think there are several oppositions and they seem to think or they are backing what is called the domestic opposition, that means opposition parties that are based in damascus and never taken up weapons against the government. so you do have very difficult issue to solve there before going to the geneva two conference if it happens. also you have to bear in mind that the geneva two conference will implement geneva one and it clearly called for a transitional government. and the big problem you have here is that the syrian national coalition which is a coalition that has been recognized by the international community said there is talk about transition if bashir is part of it and says it will only go if we are talking about ways for him to resign or to step aside. that is not the position that damascus is holding at the moment. nonetheless the media, the state-controlled media today in syria

that is our strategy -- to get a process started, for all of us, moderate opposition, the united statesinternational community, including russians, put pressure on the regime and the opposition to come to a final deal. >> let me say that in the midst of the civil war, having a desperate group of opposition, the financial agenda needs a lot of assistance at the end of the day to achieve it. it also needs to have some understanding of what our baselines for the russians are going to achieve it and see if they cannot be commensurate at the end of the day. when i talk about a strategy, i would like to hear and i will move on to senator corker, but i would like to hear in some setting the detail of what our effort is, because i just to not get the sense that we are headed anywhere there. one final question, mr. countryman, while i applaud the work being done in the chemical weapons, it is a major concern. but originally published reports had it he believed there were 45 sites, and as i understand it, the syrians declared 23 sites. what is how we are ensuring access to the entire inventory of
