We learned that lesson very well, especially in the eighties, that terrorists cannot be used as a political card, you cannot put it in your pocket, because it's like a scorpion it will bite you someday.

More quotes by 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
Many people do not understand the difference between peace and a peace treaty. If you want to have real peace with normal relations between people, you need to have comprehensive peace.
Bashar al-Assad
Those who arrived on America's tanks are not credible in Iraq.
Bashar al-Assad
Look at the results of regime change in Iraq. You can't possibly claim that it was successful.
Bashar al-Assad
[The Jews] tried to kill the principles of all religions with the same mentality in which they betrayed Jesus Christ and the same way they tried to betray and kill the Prophet Muhammad.
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
The Israeli lobby has clout in the U.S., which means that re-arranging the region and controlling its resources one way or another, will serve Israel through its control over the American administration.
Bashar al-Assad
The part in Aleppo, what [people] call it the eastern part, is occupied by the terrorists for the last three years, and they have been using the civilians as human shields.
Bashar al-Assad
Revolution should be Syrian, cannot be revolution imported from abroad.
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
I would only give a prize to whoever works for the peace in Syria, first of all by stopping the terrorists from flowing towards Syria, only.
Bashar al-Assad
The place where the interests of all parties come together is the international community, along with its resolutions.
Bashar al-Assad
You said treaties, and a Russian official said we have not agreement... contracts, that we have to fulfill, and those contracts are like any country you buy armaments, you buy anything you want.
Bashar al-Assad
Some of these agendas wanted me to quit, very simply, so they said we have all the guarantees if you want to leave, and all the money and everything you want. Of course, you just ignore that.
Bashar al-Assad
We don't say that we don't have it, we're still secular in Syria, but with the time, this secularism will be eroded.
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
We are very cautious in judging [Donald Trump], especially as he wasn't in a political position before.
Bashar al-Assad
In any war, people will pay the price.
Bashar al-Assad
I cannot afford to make mistakes.
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.
