It is natural that we should always expect an Israeli attack, even when it does not threaten.
Bashar al-Assad
In Great Britain, an author published a book in which he claimed that Jesus Christ had children. Such statements don't trigger civil unrest and bloodshed in Europe. But write similar statements about Islam in Syria and you might see bloody uprisings.
Bashar al-Assad
The place where the interests of all parties come together is the international community, along with its resolutions.
Bashar al-Assad
The worst loss for any country is not the infrastructure or the buildings or the material loss actually, it's the human resources loss.
Bashar al-Assad
[ Jihadists] are going to be against you sooner or later.
Bashar al-Assad
Opposition is different from terrorism. Opposition is a political movement.
Bashar al-Assad
They want to criticize you, let them criticize and do not worry. Just be transparent with your people and tell them this is the reality.
Bashar al-Assad
We, in Syria, our point of view stems from our experience.
Bashar al-Assad
We feel pain for every Syrian victim.
