Syrian, American Doctors Skype in Chemical Weapons 'Situation Room'
Sep 13th 2013, 20:51, by webdesk@voanews.com (Carolyn Presutti)

A group of Syrian-American doctors had anticipated a major chemical weapons attack in Syria and was planning for ways to help the victims. But they were unprepared for the enormity of the August 21 massacre during which the U.S. estimates more than 1,400 people were killed. Now, their meetings in Fort Wayne, Indiana, focus on preparation for future attacks.  They meet in a "Chemical Weapons Situation Room" in a place you'd least likely expect to find it. To get to its location, you ...

Obama: Syria Solution Must Be Verifiable, Enforceable
Sep 13th 2013, 21:19, by webdesk@voanews.com (Dan Robinson)

President Barack Obama has repeated that any diplomatic solution to the Syrian chemical weapons issue must be verifiable and enforceable. He spoke after talks Friday with the emir of Kuwait, Sheik al Ahmad Jaber al-Sabah, which also covered Egypt's political and economic crisis and other issues.  Kuwait is an important non-NATO regional ally of the United States, and a key member of the Gulf Cooperation Council, which works closely with Washington on regional political and security ...

Obama Faces Strong Anti-War Mood in Congress
Sep 13th 2013, 22:12, by webdesk@voanews.com (Cindy Saine)

Debate on Syria has shifted away from the U.S. Congress and to the international diplomatic stage, and many lawmakers are hoping they will not have to vote on an unpopular resolution sought by President Barack Obama to authorize military force because of Syria's alleged use of chemical weapons against civilians. Recent opinion polls show that more than 60 percent of Americans oppose U.S. military strikes on Syria, and a surprising number are making their anti-war sentiment known to their ...

Russia's Anti-Gay Law Tests Olympic Tenets
Sep 12th 2013, 23:23, by webdesk@voanews.com (David Byrd)

The Winter Olympic Games in Sochi, Russia, are less than six month months away.  But a controversy over a Russian law that bans propaganda of non-traditional sexual relations could cast a shadow over the competition and negatively impact the Olympic movement.   The text of the Olympic charter is rather straightforward.  Article 4 reads:   "The practice of sport is a human right.  Every individual must have the possibility of practicing sport, without ...

Syria Takes First Step Toward Joining CW Treaty
Sep 12th 2013, 23:38, by webdesk@voanews.com (Margaret Besheer)

Syria has taken its first step toward joining an international treaty banning the production and use of chemical weapons. U.N. spokesman Farhan Haq told reporters the U.N. received a document Thursday from the Syrian government that concerns its accession to the 1993 Chemical Weapons Convention. "There is a process to be followed to join the Chemical Weapons Convention treaty and this is a step towards that," said Haq. Haq said the United Nations is translating and reviewing the ...

Researchers Say Vaccine 'Completely Clears' AIDS Virus from Monkeys
Sep 12th 2013, 20:37, by webdesk@voanews.com (VOA News)

An experimental HIV/AIDS vaccine appears to have completely cleared a primate form of HIV from test monkeys. The primate version of HIV, called simian immunodeficiency virus, or SIV, causes AIDS in monkeys. Researchers at Oregon Health & Science University hope an HIV-form of the vaccine can soon be tested in humans. "To date, HIV infection has only been cured in a very small number of highly-publicized but unusual clinical cases in which HIV-infected individuals were treated with ...

Destroying Syria's Chemical Stockpiles a Costly, Lengthy Process
Sep 12th 2013, 19:28, by webdesk@voanews.com (Cecily Hilleary)

President Barack Obama is holding off on a decision to attack Syria so he can explore a negotiated settlement on securing and destroying the country's arsenal of chemical weapons.  Twice in recent years - in Iraq and in Libya - the U.S. and its allies have dismantled and destroyed chemical weapons programs, but never in the middle of a war. But Daryl Kimball, executive director of the Arms Control Association, says the experience gained in Iraq and Libya shows that dismantling Syria's ...

US, Russia in Tough Talks Over Syria's Chemical Weapons
Sep 12th 2013, 20:23, by webdesk@voanews.com (Scott Stearns)

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry opened talks in Geneva Thursday with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov as international negotiations intensify to get Syria to dismantle its chemical weapons arsenal.   Kerry said before the first day of talks that he hopes diplomacy can avoid the need for a U.S. military strike on Syria for using chemical weapons against civilians last month.   Kerry said while the United States and Russia disagree over who was behind the poison gas attack, ...
