The Iranian official made the remarks in a meeting with the Jordanian Foreign Minister Nasser Joudeh in Amman on Sunday.
Discussing regional developments with the Jordanian official, Amir-Abdollahian praised Amman’s stance on Syria, saying that foreign meddling is the reason for the situation in the country becoming more complicated.
Amir-Abdollahian added that Western countries and the United States are the main sponsors of terrorist groups in Syria because they arm militants who are destroying Syrian infrastructure.
Since mid-March 2011, Syria has been experiencing a deadly unrest, which has killed many people including large numbers of security personnel.
The prolonged violence in the Arab country has forced many of its citizens as well as Palestinian refugees in the country to leave for neighboring states such as Jordan.
On Wednesday, Iran’s first consignment of humanitarian aid was delivered to Syrian refugees in Lebanon.
According to the United Nations refugee agency, UNHCR, some 150,000 people coming from Syria have taken refuge in Lebanon over the past months.
