US welcomes Saudi withdrawal of ambassador to Syria, but....
At Monday's State Department briefing, spokesman Mark Toner said that the US welcomes Saudi Arabia's withdrawal of its ambassador to Syria, but.... the U.S. has no plans to do so. "This is a choice by any sovereign nation whether to recall its ambassador. It clearly sends a message to the government," said Toner. "For our part, we've talked about this last week and continue to believe that Ambassador Ford is playing an important role on the ground, bearing witness to what's going on in Syria."What could go wrong?
