More quotes by Bashar al-Assad
[Peace in Syria] is [António Guterres] priority, and of course it's our priority, that's self-evident.
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
Hizbullah is not a militia.
Bashar al-Assad
There's a difference between a mistake or even a crime that's been committed by an individual, and between a policy of crime that's been implemented or adopted by a government.
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.
Bashar al-Assad
We are worried that rebels are taking control in many countries, and look at the results now. Are you satisfied as an American ? What are the results ? Nothing. Very bad - nothing good.
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
We believe that Lebanon has been the first real experience for all the Arabs.
Bashar al-Assad
Winning is a subjective word, but we are making advancement. This is the correct word, because winning for some people is when you finish completely.
Bashar al-Assad
Every friend of Syria is looking for peaceful solution, and we are convinced about that. We have this advice, and without this advice we are convinced about it.
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
Today, the Iraqi citizen sees that America is coming and wants to occupy his country and kill him, and he is willing to experience for himself what happened in Palestine.
Bashar al-Assad
It's not religious war, but Al-Qaeda always use religions, Islam - actually, as a pretext and as a cover and as a mantle for their war and for their terrorism and for their killing and beheading and so on.
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
We have hopes that we can see rational American presidents fair, obey the international law, deal with other countries according to mutual respect, parity, etc., but we all know that this is only wishful thinking and fantasy.
Bashar al-Assad
The problem is not the occupation, but how people deal with it.
Bashar al-Assad
We never said that the majority [of the terrorists] are not Syrians, but we said that the minority is what they call free Syrian army. That's what we said.
Bashar al-Assad
The criteria or the paradigm for us is not the West, not the Western paradigm, because the West has its own culture, we have our own culture, they have their own reality, we have our own reality.
Bashar al-Assad
It is not my democracy as a person it is our democracy as a society.
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.
