Syrian President Bashar Assad said Wednesday that no political resolution to the country's bloody civil war can be reached unless foreign powers stop supporting the opposition seeking to oust him.
"The Syrian people alone are entitled to draw the future of Syria. Any solution must be approved by them and reflect their wishes away from any foreign intervention," state television quoted Assad as saying to United Nations special envoy Lakhdar Brahimi. "This is paramount to prepare the circumstances for dialogue and put clear mechanisms that achieve this goal."
