PanARMENIAN.Net - Syrian President Bashar Assad will be ousted "sooner
or later" by his own people as the time of dictatorial rule fades
around the world, Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan said.
Erdogan, in an interview on CNN's "Fareed Zakaria GPS" to be aired
on Sunday, October 2, maintained his stern tone towards Israel and
warned relations may "never become normal again" but he had warm
words for US President Barack Obama as Turkey rises as a diplomatic
power in the Middle East.
"You can never remain in power through cruelty. You can never stand
before the will of the people," Erdogan said in a transcript released
by CNN on Saturday.
"This process might be extended a little bit more but sooner or
later in Syria, if people take a different decision, that decision
is going to be catered to. Such as in Egypt, such as in Tunisia,
such as in Libya. People want to be free," The Jerusalem Post quoted
him as saying.
