Responding to a reporter's question whether the Syrian leader was concerned about the possibility of World War III breaking out in his country, President Assad replied: "No, for one reason: fortunately, there is the wise leadership of Russia."
Additionally, the Syrian president described the relationship between Russia and the US as something bigger than a cold war.
The Syrian president also said that his country does not have chemical weapons and denied allegations of their use. According to him, allegations of the use of chemical weapons began to appear after the Syrian army's victory.
Asked about the hypothetical possibility of a meeting with US President Trump, Mr. Assadsaid any meeting must be fruitful, and he really did not understand what could be achieved with such an inconsistent politician. "We do not believe that President Trump has control over America," President Assad said.
