We are “profoundly disappointed and troubled by this apparent attempt to legitimize Bashar al-Assad,” State Department spokesperson Ned Price said following Assad’s visit to the United Arab Emirates (UAE) on Friday, his first to an Arab country since the outbreak of the Syrian conflict in 2011.
“We urge states considering engagement with the Assad regime to weigh carefully the horrific atrocities visited by the regime on the Syrians over the last decade, as well as the regime’s continuing efforts to deny much of the country access to humanitarian aid and security,” he added.
