"Assad says Syria will respect U.N. chemical weapons accords" Al Arabiya, September 29, 2013:
Syria will adhere to United Nations accords on its chemical weapons,
President Bashar al-Assad said on Sunday in an interview with an Italian
television channel.
“We joined the international agreement
against the acquisition and use of chemical weapons even before this
resolution was passed,” Assad told RaiNews24 when asked if his country
would fulfill the U.N. resolution passed on Friday.
Assad told the channel that he was not coerced into agreeing, rather it was his own wish.
“The
central part of it is based on what we ourselves wanted. So it is not
about a resolution, in reality it is our own intention,” he said, as
quoted by Reuters.
