Assad confident anti-terror coalition of Russia, Iran, Iraq, Syria will succeed
Syrian President Bashar al-Assad has expressed confidence that a new coalition involving Russia would succeed in fighting terrorists in the Arab country.
In an interview with an Iranian news channel, Assad noted that overcoming terrorist groups in Syria could be achieved faster if some Western and Middle-Eastern governments stop supporting terrorists fighting against the Arab country. The Syrian president further warned that those governments’ support for terrorism will backfire. He also spoke of Syria’s sovereignty. Assad stressed that no foreign official is entitled to meddle in his country’s internal affairs. He said Syria’s political future can only be decided by Syrians themselves.
