More quotes by Bashar al-Assad
Think of the war against terrorism. In my view, Washington's approach can be compared to a doctor constantly banging away at a tumor instead of removing it surgically.
Bashar al-Assad
The place where the interests of all parties come together is the international community, along with its resolutions.
Bashar al-Assad
Why should you use a term [rebels] in the United States and England and maybe other countries and use another term in Syria ? This is a double standard that we don't accept.
Bashar al-Assad
Hezbollah fighters are on the borders with Lebanon where the terrorists attacked them. On the borders with Lebanon, this is where Hezbollah retaliated, and this is where we have cooperation, and that's good.
Bashar al-Assad
It started partly as a sectarian war in some areas, but now it's not, because when you talk about sectarian war or religious war, you should have a very clear line between the sects and religions in Syria according to the geography and the demography in Syria, something we don't have.
Bashar al-Assad
We've been dealing with this kind of terrorism since the fifties, since the Muslim Brotherhood came to Syria at that time.
Bashar al-Assad
We don't say that we don't have it, we're still secular in Syria, but with the time, this secularism will be eroded.
Bashar al-Assad
Opposition doesn't mean to take arms and kill people and destroy everything.
Bashar al-Assad
This war [in Syria] is going to support Al-Qaeda and the same people that killed Americans in the 11th of September. The second thing that we want to tell Congress, that they should ask and that what we expect them to ask this administration about the evidence that they have regarding the chemical story and allegations that they presented.
Bashar al-Assad
When you talk about humanitarian, it doesn't only mean to offer the people the help, the food, their necessary needs for their life. The first thing, if you ask the Syrian refugees, for example, the first thing they want is to go back to their country.
Bashar al-Assad
If you are going to be a mediator or arbitrator you have to be in the middle between the two sides you cannot take sides only with one party.
Bashar al-Assad
Sometimes you may kill tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands with very primitive armaments.
Bashar al-Assad
Whatever the American officials said about the conflicts in Syria in general has no credibility. Whatever they say, it's just lies and, let's say, bubbles, has no foundation on the ground.
Bashar al-Assad
Syria is geographically and politically in the middle of the Middle East.
Bashar al-Assad
Syria is geographically and politically in the middle of the Middle East. That is why we are in contact with most of the problems forever, let us say, whether directly or indirectly.
Bashar al-Assad
Before the 11th of September, in my discussions with many officials of the United States, some of them are Congressmen, I used to say that don't deal with terrorists as playing games. It's a different story. You're going to pay the price if you're not wise in dealing with terrorists.
Bashar al-Assad
Opposition is different from terrorism. Opposition is a political movement.
Bashar al-Assad
From the first day I took the decision as President to defend my country.
Bashar al-Assad
Its not about learning to trust. Its about learning what it is I place my trust in and why. Its like learning to see the forest for the trees. You cannot see the forest for the trees unless you are outside the forest.
Bashar al-Assad
You have different parties, different factions, you have different ideologies you have everything in Middle East region now.
