Bashar Assad
Bashar Assad, is often considered as president of Syria.
In 2012, Assad deals with massive rebels; this is often qualified as Syrian revolution and civil war. Assad qualifies the rebels as terrorists.
Assad thanks Russia, Syria and Iran for the support [1][2].
Before Assad, the similar help from the Russian budget had been distributed to the government of Muammar Gaddafi.
Since summer of 2011, defeat of Assad had been expected very soon (say, within two months) [3][4]. Year 2013 is not exception; again, the quick fall of Assad is expected (say, by 2013 February). [5][6][7]. The China observers are keptic with respect to such predictions [8].
Since 2012, December, though still maintaining Russia’s pro-Syria position, Deputy Foreign Minister Mikhail Bogdanov is positioning his government for the fall of President Bashar al-Assad. [9].
