Washington Wednesday upped the ante against the Syrian regime, denouncing its "inflammatory rhetoric" at the opening of key peace talks and dismissing claims of improved aid access as "laughable."
"Instead of laying out a positive vision for the future of Syria that is diverse, inclusive and respectful of the rights of all, the Syrian regime chose inflammatory rhetoric," State Department spokesperson Jen Psaki said.
"The fact remains the devastating circumstances created by the regime on the ground in Syria will not be changed by inaccurate words, they will only change through the implementation of the Geneva communiqué, including the creation of a transitional governing body and by the regime taking real, concrete steps to increase humanitarian access and improve the lives of the people suffering the most."
