(IsraelNN.com) In an interview with the German weekly Der Spiegel this week, former Syrian Vice-President Abdelhalim Khaddam asserted that the regime of Bashar Al-Assad in Syria is about to collapse. Accordingly, Khaddam is preparing the foundation for a government-in-exile from his Paris residence. Regarding the Assad regime, Khaddam told Der Spiegel: "The fall has begun. I do not think the regime will survive this year."
As for the potential members of his exile government, Khaddam said, "I would not exclude any political group as long as it respects the democratic process," including Islamists and Ba'athists.
