The United States agrees with the recent assessment of a global chemical weapons watchdog that found the Syrian regime used banned weapons against its own people, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said Wednesday.
In a statement, Pompeo called the report from the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) “the latest in a large and growing body of evidence that the [Bashar al-Assad] regime uses chemical weapons attacks in Syria as part of a deliberate campaign of violence against the Syrian people.”
