Yes, I’ve been to four countries, and your speculations are wrong. Your knee jerk pro-Putin, pro-dictator views shape your opinions.
OK, name and describe me a person you would like that see a leader of Syria. It is not the first day I am asking your this question and no answer so far. It really spoils your claim to be an expert and overall discredits your position on Syria.
And BTW, your using of name ‘Putin’ is way ahead of mine. Who are an apologist after all?
