Syria’s government told the United Nations it will abide by a cease-fire that begins tomorrow morning, though it reserves the right to respond to any attacks.
The statement today came after Kofi Annan, the UN and Arab League special envoy, warned that failure to agree to the cease-fire would have serious repercussions for the region and called for increased international pressure on the government of President Bashar al-Assad to end the conflict.
