Nicholas Shibon and Iran’s Deputy-FM for Arab and African Affairs Hossein Amir-Abdollahian discussed regional issues on Wednesday. Mr. Shibon said that his country welcomed and sought peaceful solution to crisis in Syria, and that Iran was an important part of this solution.
Amir-Abdollahian for his part, reiterated Iran’s much-quoted position of seeking political solution since the unrest broke out in Syria early 2011. He criticized ‘some countries in the region,’ who only contributed to violence and sent weapons and support to terrorists in Syria, which made millions of people take refuge in neighboring countries, and killed hundreds of thousands more. “The attempts by EU countries to forge a realistic view of the events in Syria and a focus on political process, ending violence, and fighting terrorism is crucial for any solution for the crisis,” Mr. Abdollahian asserted.
