Syria on Path to Victory: Assad

Syria on Path to Victory: Assad

Syrian President, Bashar al-Assad

Syrian President says his country is on the path to victory through eliminating all terrorists in the country

Alwaght- Syrian President says his country is on the path to victory through eliminating all terrorists.

Referring to the recent liberation of strategic Aleppo city from terrorist domination, Bashar al-Assad said “We do not consider that (liberating Aleppo) as a victory because victory will be when we have eliminated all the terrorists.”

Speaking to the Luxembourgish French-language RTL television station, he added “But it is a critical moment in this war, because we are on the path to victory.”

The Syrian army announced on 22 December 2016 that government forces had wrested full control over Aleppo after the last batch of civilians and militants were evacuated from the city.

Earlier on Sunday, Assad expressed optimism over the forthcoming negotiations between the Syrian government and foreign-backed opposition in the Kazakh capital Astana on 23 January.

Damascus is "ready to negotiate" with some 91 armed opposition groups, he was quoted as saying by Syria’s official news agency, SANA, during a meeting with a visiting delegation of French parliamentarians and intellectuals in the capital Damascus.

Assad also said he was "counting a lot" on the upcoming talks in Kazakhstan.

Syria has been hit with foreign-backed militancy since 2011 but in recent months the national army gained great victories by pushing them back in many key areas.
