Russia is putting their foot down in the Syria weapon situation...

This is a great example about how all the countries decides to come together to make a difference. In reference to the Syria and chemical weapons, Russia has asked Syria to put its chemical weapons stockpiles under international control and then destroyed, if they want to avoid US military strikes. Knowing Russia is a great threat and the United States does not believe in allowing steps their boundaries.

In this quote, it informs the Syria government the negative that can occur if they choose not to abide with the great forces. "US allies have also reacted cautiously:

• UK Minister David Cameron said the destruction of the weapons would be a "huge step forward", but warned that it should not be used as a "distraction tactic"
• French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius called on Mr Assad to make "rapid, serious and verifiable" commitments to the plan
• German Chancellor Angela Merkel said it was an "interesting proposal" but added that she hoped real action would follow

After reading this article it proves to me the fact that Syria knew they were not able to stand a fight with Russia nor the less the U.S.A is a great reason to why they just had to call it a quit.
