TEHRAN, Apr. 07 (MNA) – Iranian Parliament Speaker's Special Advisor on International Affairs Hossein Amir-Abdollahian, described the US attack to Syria a hasty measure that strengthens terrorism and extremism in the region.

“This measure of Americans showed that fighting ISIL is still out of US agenda,” said Amir-Abdollahian on Friday.

He made the remarks after the missile attack of the US warships to a Syrian air base. He asserted that the attack sent a message of encouragement to the terrorists.

“The military attack of the US to Syria neglected the political attempts to end the crisis,” highlighted the Iranian diplomat.

“This hasty military measure is against the international law and the UN charter and strengthens extremism and terrorism in the region.”
