A ceasefire for Syria proposed by UN-Arab League envoy Kofi Annan is due to come into force in the next few hours, but Western countries have publicly doubted Syria's willingness to comply.
On Wednesday, Syria said it would abide by the ceasefire but reserved the right to respond to attacks.
The US said Syria's pledge held "little if any credibility".
The main armed rebel group said it would not stop shooting if government troops continued to attack.
Mr Annan received written assurances from the Syrian foreign ministry that government troops would "cease all military fighting throughout Syrian territory as of 06:00 (03:00 GMT)... while reserving the right to respond proportionately to any attacks carried out by armed terrorist groups", his spokesman, Ahmad Fawzi said.
