Syria's Assad says Trump's 'animal' slur represents himself
Tehran (KNA) - The Syrian president has said that Donald Trump's "animal Assad" slur is representation of the US president himself.
"It represents him, and I think there is a well-known principle, that what you say is what you are," says Syrian President Bashar al-Assad during an interview with RT to be aired on Thursday.
Assad was referring to an April tweet by US President Donald in which he blamed Russian President Vladimir Putin and Iran for the alleged chemical attack near the capital Damascus."President Putin, Russia and Iran are responsible for backing Animal Assad. Big price to pay," Trump tweeted.
