Assad accuses the West of intervening after Syrian military victories!
DAMASCUS, Syria (PNN) - April 16, 2018 - Syrian President Bashar al-Assad has accused Western powers of intervening in Syria’s affairs every time their army achieves a victory, during an interview with state media outlet SANA.
President Bashar al-Assad on Thursday received Iranian Supreme Leader’s Top Adviser for International Affairs, Ali Akbar Velayati, and the accompanying delegation.
The talks dealt with the accelerated developments in the war on terrorism and the political repercussions resulting from it. Velayati congratulated President al-Assad and the Syrian people on defeating terrorism from eastern Ghouta and liberating its people and ridding them of the terrorists’ crimes.
The talks stressed that threats of some Western countries to attack Syria, based on the lies fabricated by these countries and their tools of the terrorist organizations inside Syria, came after the liberation of eastern Ghouta.
“Whenever the Syrian army achieves victory in the field, some Western countries raise their voices and intensify their movements in an attempt to change the track of events,” President al-Assad said. “These voices and any possible action will contribute nothing but an increase in instability in the region, threatening international peace and security,” Iran’s PressTV quoted Assad as adding.
Professor emeritus of Russian studies at Princeton University and New York University Stephen Cohen told Tucker Carlson Thursday night he’s more worried than he’s ever been at the prospect of nuclear war with Russia.
“If Russians die, if Damascus is attacked, Russia will retaliate with its excellent weapons, every bit as good as ours… some people say in some regards the missile technology is better. Russia will strike, and Amerikans in Syria will die,” said Cohen.
“We will be where we have never, ever, ever been with Russia, killing each other… bearing in mind that both nations are laden with nuclear weapons. So I am more worried than I have ever been in my life, at least since the Cuban missile crisis,” added Cohen.
