Assad Says He Feels No Guilt for Deaths of Syrians
In Bashar Al Assad’s interview with ABC’s Barbara Walters, the Syrian leader says he feels no guilt for the deaths of Syrians during the past nine months of protests because he, Assad, does not control those forces. Marco Werman listens to parts of the interview with Andrew Tabler of The Washington Institute to get his reaction. Tabler lived in Syria for seven years and has met Bashar Assad.
