SEC. RUBIO: SYRIA MAY BE WEEKS AWAY FROM TOTAL COLLAPSE

Marco Rubio, a U.S. Senator, has expressed concerns that Syria could be on the brink of a full-scale collapse, suggesting that a transitional authority may only have weeks before facing a major crisis.

He highlights the potential for regional instability as a result of Syria's internal conflict, noting that the country seems to be fragmenting. This statement underscores the urgency of the situation and the need for international attention and possibly intervention to prevent further deterioration in Syria and its impact on neighboring countries.
