Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian has said that the recent trip of Kofi Annan, the UN-Arab League joint special envoy on Syria, to Tehran is indicative of the fact that Iran plays a prominent role in restoring peace in the region, particularly in Syria.

Speaking to the Persian service of the Fars News Agency on Wednesday, Amir-Abdollahian said that the Syrian crisis can be resolved only through national dialogue.
