The West is nothing more than a television witness to the “absurdly awful” Syrian civil war, the co-founder of Medecins Sans Frontieres (Doctors Without Borders) has warned.

Bernard Kouchner, a former French foreign minister, also insists Syrian President Bashar al-Assad is on his way to victory despite political leaders promising they would do something to force him out.
