Syria's Assad: Some Syrian refugees 'definitely' terrorists
None
DAMASCUS—Syria's President Bashar Assad said in an interview that there are "definitely" terrorists among the millions of Syrians seeking refuge in the West.
"You don't need a significant number to commit atrocities," he claimed on Friday.
Assad considers all armed opposition in the war that has beset Syria since 2011 as "terrorists."
Assad wouldn't comment on whether US President Donald Trump was justified in issuing a ban on seven Muslim countries, including Syria. He calls it an "American sovereignty" issue.
His priority, Assad says, is to "bring those citizens to their country, not to help them emigrate."
