More quotes by Bashar al-Assad
Regarding fighting terrorism, we are ready to cooperate with anyone in this world with no conditions. That's crux of our policy, not today, not yesterday for years, even before the war on Syria, we always said that.
Bashar al-Assad
Despite the ethnic diversity within each nation, the social fabric of the region by and large is one.
Bashar al-Assad
This is the Middle East, where every week you have something new so whatever you talk about this week will not be valuable next week.
Bashar al-Assad
Talking about winning and losing is like if you're talking about two armies fighting on two territories, which is not the case. Those [terrorists] are gangs, coming from abroad, infiltrate inhabited areas, kill the people, take their houses, and shoot at the army. The army cannot do the same, and the army doesn't exist everywhere.
Bashar al-Assad
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

Bashar al-Assad
Peace in Syria is not only our priority it's a Middle Eastern priority, and when the Middle East is stable, the rest of the world is stable, because the Middle East is the heart of the world geographically and geopolitically, and Syria is the heart of the Middle East geographically and geopolitically.
Bashar al-Assad

Bashar al-Assad
Of course, when Secretary-General is objective, he can play an important role in dealing with different officials in the United Nations in order to bring the policies of the different states - mainly Russia and the United States - toward more cooperation and more stability regarding Syria.
Bashar al-Assad
I wouldn't tell the President [Barack Obama] or any other official, because we are disappointed by their behavior recently, because we expected this administration to be different from Bush's administration. They are adopting the same doctrine with different accessories.
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
When you have terrorists, you don't throw at them balloons or you don't use rubber sticks, for example. You have to use armaments.
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
The first thing you have to learn is how to conduct dialogue and how to make it productive.
Bashar al-Assad
To have opposition ? We have it, and you can go and meet with them. We have some of them within the government, we have some of them outside the government. They are opposition. We have it.
