Obama said that Moscow and Tehran recognised Islamic State as a "serious threat" but Russia’s efforts in Syria were aimed at propping up Assad.
"Bottom line is, I do not foresee a situation in which we can end the civil war in Syria while Assad remains in power," he told reporters in Manila on the sidelines of the annual Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit.
Note that, Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad told Italian media that he would forsake power two years after defeating the terrorists, saying, “It’s impossible to achieve political results as long as terrorists are in control of some provinces”.
