“One Must Also Liberate Europe”
The following interview with a Syrian couple originally aired on an independent French news outlet. One interviewee spoke in English, and the other in French. The English segments were already subtitled in French, and now the French parts have been subtitled in English.
The subjects of the interview are supporters of — or at least sympathizers with — Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. Since the primary patron of Mr. Assad’s regime is Russia, the couple’s statements reflect the standard Russian talking points about the civil war in Syria and the American government’s role in financing and supplying various jihad factions, a.k.a. the “Syrian rebels”. Nevertheless, much of what they say is essentially true, and worth listening to.
Many thanks to Oz-Rita for the translation, and to Vlad Tepes for the subtitling:
Emphasis mine in this excerpt; see GoV for the video and the rest of the interview:
The West couldn’t give a damn about | ||
14:10 | refugees. For them its a weapon | |
14:14 | for capitalism. They want to colonise, because it’s the colonisation | |
14:18 | of a country. When Syria tomorrow needs | |
14:22 | doctors, engineers, | |
14:26 | who will reconstruct this country? | |
14:30 | Who? If all the young ones | |
14:34 | are in Europe. They want to destroy the future of a country. | |
14:39 | They want to destroy the Syrian people, the Syrian state, | |
14:43 | and that is their only interest. Because there are many | |
14:47 | mafiosi who earn a lot of money. And you see | |
14:51 | at the moment how many | |
14:55 | of these mafiosi are arrested? Not (even) ten. | |
14:59 | But during one year, many doctors, | |
15:03 | many engineers, many students have left their country because | |
15:07 | Hollande and Merkel and the others said: Come to us. | |
15:11 | That is their goal: Not to help people, but to use the people | |
15:15 | against the Syrian Government and against the Syria of tomorrow. That is | |
15:19 | their goal, that is their project. The Syrian situation, is it comparable | |
15:24 | with the Libyan situation? |
