On the other half, where you have all kinds of terrorist groups coming from everywhere, you have Uzbeks, Chechen, Tajik, Turkey … all kinds of … you know, of who you never heard. They are dwelling there with their wives … and with their … ok, and ah everyone can calculate, here you have it’s very small, here you have a million, one million and a half and there they have three hundred, four hundred thousand.

Even until today, until today it’s free, it’s free of charge ok? So everybody, I have seen the rebel areas of like Idlib countryside, I slept there.
