Bashar al-Assad

Russia is very important, Iran is very important, Hezbollah is very important. All of them are important. Each one made important achievements against the terrorists in Syria, so it’s difficult to say who is more important than the other.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Achievement Country Hope Important
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

Government Majority Vices
[It is important] to have stability and to have security, which means humanitarian equals fighting terrorists. You cannot talk about humanitarian aid and supporting the terrorists at the same time. You cannot, you have to choose.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Fighting Important Mean
[ Jihadists] are going to be against you sooner or later.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Later Sooner
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

Differences People Real
When you use an armament, you use it to defend the civilians. You kill terrorists in order to defend civilians. That’s the natural role of any army in the world.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Army Order Roles
We cannot use jihadists because it’s like shooting yourself in the foot.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Feet Shooting Use
If there is any change regarding that hope, we should ask the Syrian people, not anyone else in the world.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Anyone People Regard World
The armament of the government is legal armament. Any other armament is not legal.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Armament Government Legal
Anyone who’s not military knows this fact. Why do you use chemical weapons while you’re advancing ?
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Military Use Weapons
Let’s presume that a country or army has this weapon ; this kind of armaments cannot be used by infantry for example or by anyone. This kind of armament should be used by specialized units, so it cannot be in the hand of anyone.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Army Country Hands
Trust that the thing in life that excites you the most comes complete with all the tools necessary to support you in the doing of that thing. It is automatic; it is built in. All you need to do is act on the opportunities that doing that situation brings to you.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Life Opportunity Support Thing
In the initiative that we issued at the beginning of year 2013 we said every party with no exceptions as long as they give up their armaments.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Giving Party Up Years
The fact that there are people who criticize me doesn’t mean that people hate me.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Hate Mean People
It should be known that Israel is based on treachery.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Based Country Should Treachery
It’s not about me, again, this fight is not my fight, it’s not the fight of the government ; it’s the fight of the country, of the Syrian people.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD
