Two hundred US troops are to be deployed to Jordan - in a bid to help contain the
ongoing violence in Syria. The US Secretary of Defence, Chuck Hagel stressed this
would also lay the groundwork for the possible future deployment of a larger military
force.
Meanwhile Washington's expected to step up its supply of non-lethal aid to Syrian
rebels, fighting against president Bashar al-Assad. Dr. Conn Hallinan from Foreign Policy
in Focus thinks Washington's move jeopardizes any chance for peace in the country.
