Tq2u2 | kz1Kizi♥ – Assad: Amerika Syarikat 'boleh mengharapkan segala-galanya' jika ia menyerang Syria. Presiden Syria Bashar Assad telah memberi AMARAN bahawa Amerika Syarikat boleh mengharapkan tindak balas jika ia melancarkan serangan tentera terhadap Syria sebagai tindak balas kepada dakwaan August 21 serangan kimia.
“Anda boleh mengharapkan segala-galanya. Tidak semestinya dari kerajaan, “Assad memberitahu CBS dalam satu temu bual yang dijalankan di istana presiden di Damsyik. Beliau seterusnya berkata bahawa ia adalah “bukan sahaja kerajaan” di rantau ini. “Anda mempunyai pihak yang berbeza, anda mempunyai kumpulan yang berbeza, anda mempunyai ideologi yang berbeza.”
Ditanya sama ada beliau akan melancarkan tindak balas ketenteraan kepada mana-mana serangan ke atas Syria, Assad berkata, “Saya bukannya teller nasib untuk memberitahu anda apa yang akan berlaku.”
Amerika Syarikat akan “membayar harga yang jika anda tidak bijak dengan berurusan dengan pengganas,” kata Presiden Syria memberitahu 'CBS Pagi Ini' bersama tuan rumah Charlie Rose dalam wawancara pertamanya dengan televisyen Amerika dalam tempoh hampir 2 tahun.
Ini datang sebagai Presiden Amerika Syarikat, Barack Obama sedang mencari untuk memenangi kebenaran daripada Kongres Amerika Syarikat - yang telah agak ragu-ragu setakat ini - untuk menyerang ‘terhad’ tentera terhadap kerajaan Syria. Pentadbiran menuduh kerajaan Syria mengarahkan penggunaan senjata kimia di pinggir bandar Damsyik bulan lepas.
Assad, bagaimanapun, menafikan sebarang penglibatan dalam serangan yang didakwa.
“Tidak ada bukti bahawa saya menggunakan senjata kimia terhadap orang-orang saya sendiri,” katanya.
Menurut Assad, kuasa-kuasa kerajaan tidak berada dalam kawasan serangan senjata kimia pada 21 Ogos.
“Anggota tentera di kawasan lain telah diserang kimia,” katanya. “Tetapi di kawasan di mana mereka berkata kerajaan telah menggunakan senjata kimia, kita hanya mempunyai video dan kita hanya mempunyai gambar-gambar dan tuduhan. Kita tidak berada di sana.”
Versi penuh temu bual itu, bahagian-bahagian yang telah ditunjukkan oleh CBS, akan disiarkan pada petang Isnin di PBS.
Assad: US ‘should expect everything’ if it strikes Syria
Syrian President Bashar Assad has warned that the United States should expect a retaliation if it launches a military strike against Syria in response to the alleged August 21 chemical attack.
“You should expect everything. Not necessarily from the government,” Assad told CBS in an interview conducted in the presidential palace in Damascus. He went on to say that it is “not only the government” in the region. “You have different parties, you have different factions, you have different ideology.”
Asked if he would mount a military response to any attack on Syria, Assad said “I am not fortune teller to tell you what's going to happen.”
The US will “pay the price if you are not wise with dealing with terrorists,” the Syrian president told ‘CBS This Morning’ co-host Charlie Rose in his first interview with American television in nearly two years.
This comes as American President Barack Obama is seeking to win an authorization from US Congress – that has been rather skeptical so far - for a ‘limited’ military strike against the Syrian government. The administration accused the Syrian government of ordering the use of chemical weapons in a Damascus suburb last month.
Assad, however, denied any involvement in the alleged attack.
“There is no evidence that I used chemical weapons against my own people,” he said.
According to Assad, the government forces were not in the area of the chemical weapons attack on August 21.
“Our soldiers in another area were attacked chemically,” he said. “But in the area where they said the government used chemical weapons, we only had video and we only have pictures and allegations. We're not there.”
The full version of the interview, portions of which were shown by CBS, will be aired on Monday evening on PBS.
