"The conspiracy against Syria is nearing its end," pro-Damascus Al-Akhbar newspaper said, citing unnamed politicians who met with Assad in the Syrian capital.
The opposition to his regime is "playing a game of survival", the newspaper cited Assad as telling his Arab nationalist visitors.
"Significant successes have been made, whose strategic importance is clear even to those in the region and the rest of the world who are making useless plans against Syria's security," he added.
The politicians described Assad as "very comfortable" with military developments in Syria and had raised "contradictions in the exiled opposition groups' stance... as proof of their failure".
Assad's regime has frequently referred to the revolt that broke out in Syria in March 2011 as a foreign-backed plot against the country.

Any country I feel is better under monarchy or dictatorship. Its better than democracy which takes eons to come to any decision. Of course , my statement is uttered in a moment of utter depression at seeing so many being killed .
vow.. after the slaughter of of 65000 , he still has the guts to say so... ok i get it , there may be sectarian biases in that conflict and also the opinion section here bt come on people, get a bit of objectivity , if we in our country cant allow a dictator for ten years running , estimate the condition of poor syrians who for good part of last 50 years are being denied their democratic n basic human rights....
How true - the mess they (West+Turkey+Saudi+Qatar+Israel+UAE) created in Syria was really complex and can be summed up as an act of Satan - Syrians paid the price but congratulations and thumps up finally.
