Bashar al-Assad

Tayyip Erdoğan is megalomaniac President, he is not stable. He lives during the Ottoman era, he doesn’t live in the current time. He’s out of touch with the reality.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

Eras President Reality

As a state, as a government, in 2001 we proposed to the United Nations to empty or to get rid of every WMD in the Middle East, and the United States stood against that proposal. This is our conviction and policy.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

East Government Middle Proposed
We have agreements with many countries including Iran, including Russia, including other countries that are about different things including armament. It’s cooperation like any cooperation between any two countries, which is normal. It’s not related to the crisis.

Conversely, it is correct to say that bringing about peace would be the best way to fight terror.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD

The majority of fighters now are Al-Qaeda. If you want to support them, you are supporting Al-Qaeda, you are creating havoc in the region, and if this region is not stable, the whole world cannot be stable.
BASHAR AL-ASSAD
