Defense Secretary Leon Panetta says he is confident a no-fly zone could be enforced over Syria, but there are no immediate plans to implement one.
“We have planned for a number of contingencies that could take place and one of those possible contingencies is developing a no-fly zone. But we’ve also pointed out difficulties in being able to implement that,” Panetta told the Associated Press. “It’s not on the front burner as far as I know.”
