Simply naming objectives isn't sufficient for a vision. If I say that I'm going to build a large palace, but I don't have any money to do so, then that is not a vision - it's an illusion.

Since the beginning of the crisis, since the terrorists started to control some areas within Syria, the majority of the Syrian civilians left that areas to join the government areas, not vice versa. If the majority of the Syrians don't trust the government, they should go the other way.
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
It is not my democracy as a person it is our democracy as a society.

Bashar al-Assad
As far as we are concerned, we Syria have not changed.
Bashar al-Assad
I would say I need two things: the first one is to be objective in every statement he could make regarding any conflict around the world, including Syria. The second one is not to turn Secretary-General office into a part or branch of the State Department of the United States.
Bashar al-Assad
We're not sure that if there's chemical weapon used and who used it. We can't talk about virtual things, we have to talk about facts.
Bashar al-Assad
Let's talk... we have indications, let me just finish this point, because how can use WMD while your troops are only 100 meters away from it ? Is it logical ? It doesn't happen. It cannot be used like this.
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
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
Whenever you have a war, the civilians and the innocents will pay the price. That's in any war, any war is a bad war.
Bashar al-Assad
There's a difference between a mistake or even a crime that's been committed by an individual, and between a policy of crime that's been implemented or adopted by a government.
Bashar al-Assad
The place where the interests of all parties come together is the international community, along with its resolutions.
