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
At the end, I said [chemical weapons] is something not to be discussed with anyone.
Bashar al-Assad
Circumstances don't matter, only my state of being matters. What state of being are you choosing?
Bashar al-Assad
My country and me, we are part of this region, we're not separated. We cannot discuss it as Syria or as me it should be as part, as a whole, as comprehensive. That's how we have to look at it.
Bashar al-Assad
Anyone who's not military knows this fact. Why do you use chemical weapons while you're advancing ?
Bashar al-Assad
For the West, they wanted to undermine the Syrian positions. For the petrodollar countries like Saudi Arabia, they're thinking undermining Syria will undermine Iran on sectarian basis.
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
Is there an equality of power between America and Iraq? Definitely not however, the Iraqi people are standing fast and are defending their land courageously.
Bashar al-Assad
Let's be realistic, every terrorist came to Syria, he came through Turkey with the support of [Recep Tayyip] Erdogan. So, fighting those terrorists is like fighting the army of Erdogan, not the Turkish army, the army of Erdogan.
Bashar al-Assad
Sometimes you may kill tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands with very primitive armaments.
Bashar al-Assad
The fact that there are people who criticize me doesn't mean that people hate me.
Bashar al-Assad
The most significant indicator that there is no disaster in Iraq is the fact that there is no exodus.
Bashar al-Assad
Terrorists have been supported by tens of foreign countries, so Syria alone wouldn't be able to face this kind of war without the help of its friends.
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
I've never heard of soft war.There's no soft war. War is war. Any war is ruthless. When you fight terrorists, you fight them like any other war.
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.
Bashar al-Assad
In the war, you lose areas, but you recapture another area. So, it is difficult to tell whether you are losing or gaining or it was a standstill. No-one has this answer.
Bashar al-Assad
The problem is not the occupation, but how people deal with it.
Bashar al-Assad
[Hezbollah, Iran, and Russia] are here because they could offer very essential and important help, because the situation that we are facing now is not only about a few terrorists from within Syria it's like international war against Syria.
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.
