Any step on Syria’s future is up to the Syrians to decide

President Bashar al-Assad affirmed on Wednesday that any step pertaining to Syria’s future is up to the Syrian people to decide. 

He was speaking during a meeting with the youth religious team that includes religious figures and Islamic preachers from all Syrian provinces with the attendance of Minister of Awqaf (Religious Endowments) Mohammad Abdul-Sattar al-Sayyed. 

During the meeting, President al-Assad affirmed that one of the most important things that the team has to tend to is reshaping terms and correcting misconceptions in order to spread the true religion in the face of extremism. 

President al-Assad pointed out that the war the Syrians are currently waging is a war of mind, and hence comes the need that the team members master dialogue tools and put into use the method of analysis and inference in order to establish a balanced non-superficial discourse in raising religious issues. 

In his comments about Aleppo, President al-Assad considered that the steadfastness of the people of Aleppo has been a decisive factor in the victory over terrorism along with the sacrifices of the Syrian Arab Army, noting that Aleppo has suffered a great deal, because the plot planned against it has been a huge one.--SANA
