Bashar al-Assad
In the eighties, we asked for international coalition against terrorism after the Muslim Brotherhood crisis in Syria when they started killing, of course they were defeated at that time. We asked for the same thing. So, this is a long-term policy that we base our policy on for years now.
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
Those who arrived on America's tanks are not credible in Iraq.

I don't have support. Not me all Syria. Every agreement is between every class and every sector in Syria government, people, trade, military, culture, everything it's like the cooperation between your country and any other country in the world. It's the same cooperation. It's not about me it's not support for the crisis.

Bashar al-Assad
We are very cautious in judging [Donald Trump], especially as he wasn't in a political position before.
Bashar al-Assad

Bashar al-Assad
We asked for a delegation [of the Red Cross] in March 2013 when the first attack happened in Aleppo in the north of Syria they delayed it till just a few days before al-Ghouta when they sent those team, and the team itself said in its report that he did everything as he wanted. There was not a single obstacle.
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
Opposition doesn't mean to take arms and kill people and destroy everything.
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
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
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
We, in Syria, our point of view stems from our experience.
