More quotes by Bashar al-Assad
Did the President order anyone to kill civilians, did he order the destruction, did he order supporting terrorism in his country? Of course not.
Bashar al-Assad
Lebanon was under Israeli occupation, up to its capital, but we did not consider that a disaster. Why? Because it was very clear that there are ways to resist.
Bashar al-Assad
Talking about winning and losing is like if you're talking about two armies fighting on two territories, which is not the case. Those [terrorists] are gangs, coming from abroad, infiltrate inhabited areas, kill the people, take their houses, and shoot at the army. The army cannot do the same, and the army doesn't exist everywhere.
Bashar al-Assad
Israel does not care about the international public opinion.
Bashar al-Assad
It would be a mistake to link anything that Israel does to a certain circumstance. And it is a mistake to feel comfortable in any circumstance just because Israel did not act on it.
Bashar al-Assad
As a state, as a government, in 2001 we proposed to the United Nations to empty or to get rid of every WMD in the Middle East, and the United States stood against that proposal. This is our conviction and policy.
Bashar al-Assad
You should expect everything. Not necessarily through the government, the governments are not the only player in [Middle East] region.
Bashar al-Assad
If you want to kill the Syrian people, who's going to support us as a government, as officials? No one.
Bashar al-Assad
We're not in the area where the alleged chemical attack happened. I said alleged. We're not sure that anything happened.
Bashar al-Assad
You can't say the people of Aleppo because the majority of the people of Aleppo are living in the area under the control of the government, so you cannot talk about the people of Aleppo.
Bashar al-Assad
We have to be there to get the evidence like what happened in Aleppo when we had evidence. And because the United States didn't send the team, we sent the evidence to the Russians.
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
[Chemical weapons] isn't about what the United States believe in, it's about the reality that we have, and this reality, we own it, we don't have to discuss it.
Bashar al-Assad
We are dealing with treachery and threats, which accompanied the establishment of Israel.
Bashar al-Assad
We can have national dialogue where different Syrian parties sit and discuss the future of Syria. You can have interim government or transitional government. Then you have final elections, parliamentary elections, and you're going to have presidential elections.
Bashar al-Assad
When you talk about cooperation, it means cooperation between two legal governments, not cooperation between foreign government and any faction within Syria.
Bashar al-Assad
Every country has criminals who have to be fought. They can exist anywhere, including the government or the army - or outside the government and army.
Bashar al-Assad
First of all, when you have a doctor who cut the leg to prevent the patient from the gangrene if you have to, we don't call butcher you call him a doctor, and thank you for saving the lives.
Bashar al-Assad
We feel pain for every Syrian victim.
Bashar al-Assad
We cannot tell anything about what [Donald Trump] is going to do, but if, let's say if he is going to fight the terrorists, of course we are going to be ally, natural ally in that regard with the Russian, with the Iranian, with many other countries who wanted to defeat the terrorists.
