Speaking at a hearing of the Committee, Royce recalled that the recent U.S. strike was “legitimate and justified” because, according to him, was done in response to the “barbaric attack” of the authorities using chemical weapons.
“I hope that (President Bashar) Assad understood the signal. If not, it may be new (strikes),” said Royce.
The US, Britain and France on the morning of 14 April, launched missile strikes on Syrian government facilities that, in their opinion, are used to produce chemical weapons. Syrian authorities have repeatedly stated that the entire chemical Arsenal was removed from the country under the control of the OPCW.
