Al-Assad: Syrian Army to Confront Terrorists, Determine Future of Region
Local Editor
Syrian President Bashar al-Assad has said that international acknowledgment of the threats of terrorism is one of the factors determining the future of the region.
Addressing the members of the ruling Al Baath Party on Thursday, al-Assad said that the region is going through a "critical juncture", the official SANA news agency said.
He noted that the Syrian army would keep confronting the terrorist groups and would strive to achieve national reconciliation.
Al-Assad further stressed that any international effort that aims to solve Syria's crisis must help to reinforce national reconciliation and also help to stop the flow of support, in the form of funds and weapons, to the terrorists in Syria.
"Daesh has not emerged out of thin air," said al-Assad.
For this, he blamed "wrong-headed policies by the parties involved in the war against Syria that have supported, armed and funded terrorist organizations to undermine Syria".
"International cooperation" was necessary to crush the "ISIL" group.
"The region is going through decisive times" and the most important factor in determining the outcome is whether there is "real and sincere international cooperation" against the terrorists, al-Assad said.
