Look at the results of regime change in Iraq. You can't possibly claim that it was successful.
Bashar al-Assad
From Russia for example, we have political support, which is different from the cooperation. We have cooperation for 60 years now, but now we have political support.

The sarin gas is a very primitive gas. You can have it done in the backyard of a house it's a very primitive gas. So, it's not something complicated.
