When you talk about humanitarian, it doesn't only mean to offer the people the help, the food, their necessary needs for their life. The first thing, if you ask the Syrian refugees, for example, the first thing they want is to go back to their country.
Bashar al-Assad
I will tell [Barack Obama] very simply : present what you have as evidence to the public, be transparent.
Bashar al-Assad

It started partly as a sectarian war in some areas, but now it's not, because when you talk about sectarian war or religious war, you should have a very clear line between the sects and religions in Syria according to the geography and the demography in Syria, something we don't have.
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
The most significant indicator that there is no disaster in Iraq is the fact that there is no exodus.
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
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.
