Mr. President, Russia is opposing the US and EU policies, especially with regards to Syria, what would happen were Russia to make a compromise now? Is such a scenario possible?

President Assad: Russian-American relations should not be viewed through the context of the Syrian crisis alone; it should be viewed in a broader and more comprehensive manner. The US presumed that with the collapse of the Soviet Union, Russia was perpetually destroyed. After President Putin took office in the late 90s, Russia began to gradually recover and regain its international position; hence the Cold War began again, but in a different and subtler manner.

The US persisted on many fronts: striving to contain Russian interests in the world, attempting to influence the mentality of Russians closer to the West both in terms of culture and aspiration.

-It's pathetic that the original poster's best idea to improve the world is to make an issue out of gay rights, when innocent civilians are being killed in cold blood by terrorists in Syria - supported by the Canadian, U.S., British, and French governments. Featuring the Syrian flag on Olympic uniforms, in support of the Assad government, is the most relevant thing to do in today's world.
