The head of Syria Bashar al-Assad has said he is ready to cooperate with the elected President of the United States Donald trump. But under one condition – if the American counterpart Assad to fight terrorism, as do Russia and Iran. The head of the Arab Republic stated in an interview with RTP.
While Assad stressed that in this matter he does not expect much from the future head of the state, because “the U.S. administration is not limited to the President, and trump will be subject to the influence of lobbyists”.
The Syrian President wants to wait for trump to take office to see if Washington stop supporting the terrorists in Syria. “We have always urged the US to respect international law and not to interfere in the Affairs of other States,” said Assad.
The fight against terrorism became one of the main points of the electoral program of the trump. The main Republican US many times condemned the policies of Barack Obama in the middle East which was the cause of the surge of radical Islamism and terrorism in the region.
We will remind, on the eve of Donald trump has said it is ready to work with Damascus against the terrorist group “Islamic state”, and also promised to stop helping so-called moderate Syrian opposition. Also during his election campaign trump promised that if he wins, America will not overthrow the regimes in other States.
In addition, trump often talked about plans for cooperation with Moscow, particularly in the fight against ISIS.
