In this image made from video, Syrian President Bashar Assad delivers a speech in Damascus, Syria, Tuesday, Jan. 10, 2012. Assad gave his first speech Tuesday since he agreed last month to an Arab League plan to halt the government's crackdown on dissent. The U.S. and its allies are closely monitoring Syria's stockpiles of chemical weapons and portable anti-aircraft missiles, a State Department official says, amid concerns that the country's unconventional weapons could fall into the hands of terror or militant groups while the 11-month-old uprising continues.
