Syria Will Only Dialogue After Crushing the Rebels

Information Minister, Omran al-Zoebi

Last Monday the Syrian regime stated that there will be no dialogue or negotiations with the opposition as long as the rebels continue to attack. This was the latest announcement made by President Bashar al-Assad, who is determined to solve the crisis in the battlefield, even if it costs the lives of more people.

“There will be no dialogue with the opposition prior to the Syrian army’s imposition of security and stability in all parts of the country,” said the Information Minister Omran al-Zoebi.

Meanwhile Muhieddine Lathkani, an opposition figure established in Britain, answered al-Zoebi comments by saying, “the key to any dialogue will be the departure of al-Assad and dismantling of the regime’s security agencies that committed all these crimes.” AV
