If I were him, I would want to get the heck out of Dodge... who wants a nuclear war as their legacy. The Russians are saying this stuff so that American citizens will put pressure on Congress and the President to get back to the negotiation table.  Russia wants Assad to stay in power, the U.S. has said no. 

My personal thing is why don't we get the heck out of Syria and let the chips fall where they may.  It should not make a difference to us if Assad stays in power or not. Once again we are doing a half hearted attempt in warfare. And one day we will just leave, once we figure out there is no easy way to win, and everyone one of our military who was killed will die for nothing.  In my opinion, we get too involved in other people's human rights.  I'm not an isolationist, but we either have to go into these things, 100% to win, or we should just stay home.  WE should have learned this lesson in Viet Nam.  How do we know we aren't being fed another domino theory?
