Murray: There’s No Solution to Ending Civil War that Doesn’t Involve al-Assad

‘It’s a great loss of power and influence and prestige for your country and for mine’

RUSH EXCERPT:

MURRAY: "It does. This is a central problem we have about Syria. We just don't know what we want from it. The Russians know really clearly what they want. They have always had an objective, to shore up their ally and do everything they can to basically make the conflict about it being between bashar al-Assad and ISIS. It worked. Your government's objective in the Obama years and my government's objective during the Cameron years was to effectively -- we wouldn't do their regime change. I think we have lost in Syria on that regard. There is no solution you can see to ending civil war doesn't involve Bashar al-Assad. It's a great loss of power and influence and prestige for your country and for mine."
