Secretary Clinton Delivers Remarks on the Situation in Syria

U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton delivers remarks on the situation in Syria, at the Department of State in Washington, D.C., August 18, 2011. In her remarks, Secretary Clinton says, "The people of Syria deserve a government that respects their dignity, protects their rights, and lives up to their aspirations. Asad is standing in their way. For the sake of the Syrian people, the time has come for him to step aside and leave this transition to the Syrians themselves, and that is what we will continue to work to achieve."
