"France asks the Syrian opposition to form a provisional government - inclusive and representative - that can become the legitimate representative of the new Syria," said Hollande. "We are including our Arab partners to accelerate this step. France will recognize the provisional government of Syria once it is formed" (Erlanger). .
After reiterating the United States' President Barack Obama's statement, which was in turn backed by Prime Minister David Cameron of Britain, Hollande agreed that he will send in military to intervene if unconventional weapons were used or moved in an area that would suggest that they were a threat and could be used. Syria rebutted with a warning against foreign military intervention or a United Nations sanction to intervene militarily, stating that they would only use the unconventional weapons in the case of an external attack (Erlanger). .
In the meantime, France plans to act on the suggestions of Turkey to create buffer zones inside of Syria to protect the Free Syrian Army and other rebels currently fighting against Assad's government troops. Although Turkey refuses to use their own troops to invade Syria, they suggested that rebel forces create special zones to protect refugees. France and other countries plan to create these zones with the help of the opposition forces (Erlanger). .
Additionally, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton suggested no-fly zones over certain areas of Syria, from the border of Turkey to Aleppo, an area which has seen an increase in violence and is also experiencing a high number of fleeing citizens (Erlanger).
Over 3,500 people fled to the provinces of Kilis and Hatay in Turkey after the 300 citizens were murdered in Daraya, according to the United Nations refugee agency. The most refugees come from Aleppo. With the new refugees, the total number of Syrian citizens displaced into Turkey reaches record numbers at 65,000 people in nine different camps.
