David Cameron: Safe passage for Syria's Assad acceptable

[Gerald]

UK Prime Minister David Cameron says he would back offering President Bashar al-Assad safe passage out of Syria if it ended the bloodshed there.

Mr Cameron said the international community should consider anything "to get that man out of the country".

He also told al-Arabiya TV he would favour Mr Assad "facing the full force of international law and justice".

Amnesty International criticised Mr Cameron for "talking about immunity deals for President Assad".
