In a pessimistic assessment of the prospects of peace, he said: “Time is not yet at an end, it’s clearly running out.”
Violence on both sides is escalating and the situation is “rapidly deteriorating”, he told reporters.
Mr Hague’s comments came as UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said observers from the mission in Syria were shot at as they tried to reach the scene of the massacre in central Hama.
The reality is that intervention in Syria by the US and its allies has already begun. The western powers have backed the fractious opposition Syrian National Council since the early days of last year's uprising. So have the Gulf autocracies led by Saudi Arabia, who have stepped up the flow of weapons and cash to favoured Syrian rebel groups in recent months, while Turkey has provided a cross-border base. That is co-ordinated with the US, which supplies the same groups with "non-lethal assistance" and "communications equipment".
In other words, the US and its allies are sponsoring regime change through civil war. And while paying lip service to the Annan plan for demilitarisation and negotiation, they are making sure it won't succeed.
