"The Russian Foreign Minister says that if Bashar al-Assad resigns as Syrian leader, the choice will be his alone.

"No, we won't grant him asylum," Lavrov told US media when asked whether Russia would provide shelter to Assad if he decides to resign. "As I have said, [Assad] was a friend of other countries northwest of Syria.”

Although Russia has no intention of telling Assad to resign from office, it does have an interest in the political development of the country.

“We will not tell him to go,” Lavrov stressed, speaking in English. “Not because we believe that he is indispensable. It does not matter to us who can rule Syria as long as Syria is democratic, free and comfortable to all minorities.”"
