English term or phrase: we haven't been in a place where that's realistic
(Отрывок из пресс-брифинга)
Q: Are you going to try to persuade them [the Russians], leaving aside your view that the political track is the best way to proceed? It's not clear how much influence the Russians would have at this point over Assad. Are you going to make the case for some kind of UN Security Council action, notwithstanding the fact that the Russians have repeatedly vetoed such?
A: Again, I'm not going to get into a point-by-point of what we're going to raise in our private diplomacy with the Russians. You also know the history of their opposition and know the repeated vetoes. We've consistently said at the Security Council if there's a path forward, that would be welcome, but we haven't been in a place where that's realistic in the recent past. But we'll continue to look at the broad array of options, and you've heard the President on down talk about the broad array of options.
