Assad's foes called the election a charade."This election tells the opposition and all regional countries and the world that any political solution in Syria begins and ends with President Bashar Assad," Nasrallah told supporters via a video link."You can no longer put the resignation of the president as a pre-condition."Assad is struggling to end a more than three-year revolt which started as peaceful anti-government demonstrations that descended into civil war.Assad's opponents say his resignation is a precondition for any future peace agreement.
