Assad: 鈥楴o evidence鈥
Print Edition
Syrian President Bashar Assad denied he was behind a chemical weapons attack on the Syrian people and said evidence was not conclusive that there had been such an attack, CBS reported on its news program “Face the Nation” yesterday.
“There has been no evidence that I used chemical weapons against my own people,” Assad said in an interview conducted in Damascus.
The Obama administration has accused Assad’s forces of carrying out the attack. Assad has blamed the rebels.
Assad would neither confirm nor deny that Syria had chemical weapons, but if they did they would be under centralized control. The United States should produce evidence of his involvement, if it has the evidence, Assad said.
Assad warned that if there was a military strike by the US, there would be retaliation by those aligned with Syria. Syria was as prepared as it could be for an attack, Assad said.
He said his message for the American people was that they should not get involved in another Middle Eastern conflict.
