ANOTHER VIEW Nothing but talk hen it comes to foreign policy, President Obama has yet to distin- guish himself as a high achiever. Even his decision to pull American troops out of Afghanistan by next year has Wbeen criticized, and not just by his political rivals. Obama has given his share of impressive and inspi- rational speeches both here and overseas, and they’ve been well received, but policy successes have been few and far between. And now the situation in Syria has become so serious that the president has finally had to become more engaged in the search for a solution. Washington has announced that an additional $60 million in assistance will be provided to help the opposition provide basic services in areas it controls. The United States also will provide food rations and medical supplies to the Free Syrian Army, the armed wing of the opposition, Secretary of State John Kerry added after he met with Syrian opposition leaders in Rome. Earlier this week, Syrian rebels who had previously refused to meet Kerry and Britain’s foreign secretary, William Hague, changed their minds. Previously, those seeking to oust Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad had expressed deep dissatisfaction with Washington and London for offering only moral support rather than The dwindling RHS faculty providing arms to help their cause.
