While you wait, the cows are heading for the next pasture.

New York - In a veiled warning to the United States, UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan said on Monday that statements directed at Syria could destabilise the Middle East.

"The secretary-general is concerned that recent statements directed at Syria should not contribute to a wider destabilisation in a region already heavily affected by the war in Iraq," Annan's spokesperson said in a statement.

Earlier, top aides to US President George W Bush accused Syria of testing chemical weapons and harbouring terrorists and warned that it faced economic and diplomatic sanctions if it allowed fleeing Iraqis to cross its border.

"Syria is a terrorist state," White House spokesperson Ari Fleischer told reporters. But he added that Syrian President Bashar al-Assad "has a chance to be a leader who makes the right decisions".

Secretary of state Colin Powell said the Bush administration "will examine possible measures of a diplomatic, economic or other nature as we move forward".
