The problem with the West is that they start with political reform going towards democracy.
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.

The army cannot do the same, and the army doesn't exist everywhere.
Bashar al-Assad
