Syria's President
Bashar al-Assad was sworn in today
for a new seven-year term in Damascus. Assad was reelected after an election
held in June this year. However the opposition National Coalition branded the
election a farce. Before the election a three year long conflict had erupted in
Syria, in which more than 170,000 people were killed.-
