Winning option:After Mar 2013 President Bashar al-Assad of Syria beseeched a five-nation group of emerging powers on Wednesday to help halt the Syrian conflict, one day after the Arab League moved to further isolate Mr. Assad by ceremoniously filling his government’s vacant seat with the opposition coalition that has sworn to topple him.

Background

In Brussels, NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen told reporters the fall of President Bashar Assad is "only a question of time," CNN reported.

"I urge the regime to stop violence, to realize what is the actual situation, and initiate a process that leads to the accommodation of the legitimate aspirations of the Syrian people," Rasmussen said.

Mikhail Bogdanov, the foreign minister of Russia, also suggested Assad is losing the fight. Russia is one of Syria's few allies.
