Any external support, if you want to call it support, let's use this world, is... how to say... it's going to be additional, but it's not the base to depend on more than the Syrian support.

No doubt that the U.S. is a super-power capable of conquering a relatively small country, but is it able to control it?

My primary goal is to create prosperity.

If the American administration want to support Al-Qaeda - go ahead. That's what we have to tell them, go ahead and support Al-Qaeda, but don't talk about rebels and free Syrian army.

Revolution should be Syrian, cannot be revolution imported from abroad.

I think sadness prevails in Syria now. We don't feel anything else but sadness because we have this killing every day, whether with chemical or any other kind.

That the rebels or the terrorists used the chemical weapons in northern Aleppo five months ago [in 2013].
