MS. PSAKI: Well, his message, when he’s speaking to his counterparts around the world, is that it’s important that we speak with one international voice of condemnation of the brutal attack of the Assad regime. And that’s the message he is conveying to them. He’s asking, as the President asked on Saturday, for people to speak publicly, for countries to speak publicly about their support. That’s something we’re certainly continuing to encourage. Nine countries have publicly and very explicitly expressed support for U.S. military action, and that’s something that we are continuing to work on. [...] QUESTION: Go ahead and give us the nine that add to the U.S. and make 10. MS. PSAKI: Okay. Australia, Albania, Kosovo, Canada, Denmark, France, Poland, Romania, and Turkey. QUESTION: Kosovo? That’s a new one. QUESTION: I’m sorry. Those nine have agreed to do what? To support this -- MS. PSAKI: Have publicly and explicitly expressed support for U.S. military action.
