Syrian President Bashar al-Assad accused some Arab and Western countries of providing arms for armed gangs operating inside Syria and destabilizing security over its territories, state-run news agency SANA reported.

During an interview with the Iran's Channel 4 on Thursday evening, Assad pointed out that some states formally announced that it will send weapons in one way or another to the terrorist groups, and since these forces spoke about themselves as such then there's no point in discussing this issue or seeking evidence.

The President also voiced support to the six-point plan brokered by special envoy Kofi Annan, saying that the plan is good and is still viable now and in the future, affirming that Syria approved it out of conviction, particularly the article related to the ending of violence which means the cessation of the criminal acts of the terrorist groups and the cessation of providing them with money and weapons by the countries who sponsor them.
