James Rubin Efforts Quotations

She will make clear the stakes involved in this crisis, the threat posed, the diplomatic efforts we've sought to resolve this without the use of force, and the reasons why the use of force may be necessary.

It means that the momentum for the cooperative efforts between the two sides is increasing.
