More quotes by Bashar al-Assad
We, in Syria, our point of view stems from our experience.
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
Fighting the terrorists in Syria is not only in the interest of Syria or the Syrian people in the interest of the Middle East, of Europe itself - something that many officials in the West don't see or don't realize or don't acknowledge - and in the interest of the Russian people, because they have been facing terrorists for decades now.
Bashar al-Assad
Look at the results of regime change in Iraq. You can't possibly claim that it was successful.
Bashar al-Assad
Syria is geographically and politically in the middle of the Middle East.
Bashar al-Assad
It is not my democracy as a person it is our democracy as a society.
Bashar al-Assad
Personally, I do not support the concept of suicide bombings. This is not part of our [syrian] culture. But whether you condemn them or not, suicide bombings are a reality.
Bashar al-Assad
As we see now the American officials, they say something in the morning and they do the opposite in the evening. So, you cannot judge those people according to what they say. You cannot take them at their words, to be frank.
Bashar al-Assad
Opposition is different from terrorism. Opposition is a political movement.
Bashar al-Assad
When you're in the middle of a storm, leaving your country just because you have to leave without any reasonable reason, it means you're quitting your country and this is treason.
Bashar al-Assad
Lebanon was under Israeli occupation, up to its capital, but we did not consider that a disaster. Why? Because it was very clear that there are ways to resist.
Bashar al-Assad
The problem with the West is that they start with political reform going towards democracy. If you want to go towards democracy, the first thing is to involve the people in decision making, not to make it.
Bashar al-Assad
Whether you call it terrorism or resistance, and whether you like Hamas or not, it is a political entity that no one can ignore.
Bashar al-Assad
Hizbullah is not a militia.
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
I said we don't pin a lot of hopes of changing administrations [in U.S.] because that context has been going on for more than fifty years now, and that's expected. If they want to continue in the same position of the United States creating problems around the world, that's what they have to do: only interfering in the matters of other nations.
Bashar al-Assad
Why should you use a term [rebels] in the United States and England and maybe other countries and use another term in Syria ? This is a double standard that we don't accept.
Bashar al-Assad
Did the President order anyone to kill civilians, did he order the destruction, did he order supporting terrorism in his country? Of course not.
Bashar al-Assad
Every country has criminals who have to be fought. They can exist anywhere, including the government or the army - or outside the government and army.
Bashar al-Assad
First of all, when you have a doctor who cut the leg to prevent the patient from the gangrene if you have to, we don't call butcher you call him a doctor, and thank you for saving the lives.
