Foreigners cannot bring freedom, cannot bring democracy, because this is related to the culture, to the different factors that affect or influence that society. You cannot bring it, you cannot import it.

Bashar al-Assad

Israel has WMD, and it has to sign [chemical warfare agreement], and Israel is occupying our land, so that’s we talked about the Middle East, not Syria, not Israel ; it should be comprehensive.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Agreement Country Occupy
But for us, in Syria, we have principles. We’ll do anything to prevent the region from another crazy war. It’s not only Syria. Because it will start in Syria.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Crazy Prevent Spring War
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

Country Leaving Mean
None of us and none of the Arabs trust Israel.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Country Hope Trust
It is not my democracy as a person; it is our democracy as a society.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Democracy Persons Society
Whatever the American officials said about the conflicts in Syria in general has no credibility. Whatever they say, it’s just lies and, let’s say, bubbles, has no foundation on the ground.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Conflict Foundation Lying
We’ve been living in difficult circumstances and we prepare ourselves for every possibility. But that doesn’t mean if you’re prepared things will be better ; it’s going to get worse with any foolish strike or stupid war.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Mean Stupid War
We’re talking about one region, bigger regions, not only about Syria. This interlinked region, this intermingled, interlocked, whatever you want to call it ; if you strike somewhere, you have to expect the repercussions somewhere else in different forms in ways you don’t expect.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Different Else Somewhere Talking
Anyone who’s not military knows this fact. Why do you use chemical weapons while you’re advancing ?
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Military Use Weapons
I don’t believe the United States will be ready to join Russia in fighting terrorists in Syria.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Believe Country Fighting Join
Hizbullah is not a militia.

We asked for a delegation [of the Red Cross] in March 2013 when the first attack happened in Aleppo in the north of Syria,

Cross Delegation Happen Red Team
We are against any WMD, any weapons of mass destruction, whether chemical or nuclear.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Mass Destruction Nuclear
Let’s talk… we have indications, let me just finish this point, because how can use WMD while your troops are only 100 meters away from it ? Is it logical ? It doesn’t happen. It cannot be used like this.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Indication Point Troops Use
Think of the war against terrorism. In my view, Washington’s approach can be compared to a doctor constantly banging away at a tumor instead of removing it surgically.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Doctors Thinking War
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.
