Washington (CNN) -- The administration of U.S. President Barack Obama
ratcheted up pressure on Syria Tuesday, as the regime intensified its
bloody crackdown on protesters.
.
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton met with a group of U.S.-based Syrian
activists and opposition figures at the State Department. It was an effort
to further the diplomatic isolation of the regime of President Bashar
al-Assad over his fierce security crackdown on peaceful protests across
Syria.
.
"I admire the courage of those brave Syrians, both inside and outside
Syria, who continue to defy their government's brutality in order to
freely express their universal rights. And I remain confident in the
Syrian people's ability to chart a new course for Syria's future," Clinton
said in a statement after the meeting.
.
She told the activists the United States has "nothing invested in the
continuation of a regime that must kill, imprison and torture its own
citizens to maintain power."
.
Clinton's first meeting with the Syrian opposition comes as the United
States prepares a fresh round of sanctions against the Syrian regime.
Senior State Department officials said the Obama administration was on the
verge of imposing new measures against the Syrian oil and gas sectors,
which the regime uses to help finance its security forces.

In her statement, Clinton said that the United States is exploring broader
sanctions that would "isolate the Assad regime politically and deny it
revenue with which to sustain its brutality."
.
U.S. Ambassador to Syria Robert Ford told a Senate panel that the United
States does not have many oil companies operating inside Syria due to
existing U.S. sanctions. However the administration was discussing with
Canada and European countries that have greater investment in those
sectors how those nations could join the United States and impose more
painful sanctions
