U.S. President Barack Obama says that if there is action to be taken against Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad, it won't be by the United States alone.
Obama was joined by Turkish Prime Minister Recep Erdogan on Thursday for a White House meeting with reporters. Erdogan pressed Obama for a more active response to the Syrian government's crackdown on a citizen's uprising.
The meeting follows the deadly car bombings which killed at least 46 people in the Turkish town of Reyhanli near the border with Syria earlier this month.
The U.N. Security Council condemned the act "in the strongest terms," stressing stressed its determination to combat all forms of terrorism, in accordance with its responsibilities under the United Nations Charter.
Turkish authorities have since arrested nine people over the Reyhanli bombings.
