Bashar al-Assad has replied to John Kerry's remarks that Syria should be included in negotiations to reach a political transition, saying his government will decide on the issue after seeing "actions".
The Syrian president was responding to comments by the US secretary of state during an Sunday interview to American television channel CBS.
Kerry did not repeat the standard US line that Assad had lost all legitimacy over the conflict in Syria and so had to go.
"We have to negotiate in the end," Kerry said when asked whether the US would be willing to negotiate with Assad.
