In a meeting with Syrian Foreign Minister Walid al-Muallem in Tehran on Saturday, Jalili reaffirmed Tehran’s strategic support for the national dialogue in Syria, and criticized the West and a number of regional states for their support of terrorism in Syria.
He noted that most countries of the world back a political solution to end the Syria crisis, adding that certain countries that support terrorists cannot think of themselves as representatives of the international community and that terrorists do not represent the Syrian nation.
Jalili noted that the anti-Israeli resistance front is now much stronger than before, and said a bright and hopeful future awaits it.
Muallem, for his part, elaborated on the latest developments in Syria, and praised Iran’s constructive stance towards his country.
Syria will never forget the support of the Iranian nation and government at the current difficult situation, he stated.
Syria has been experiencing unrest since March 2011. Many people, including large numbers of security forces, have been killed in the turmoil.
The Syrian government says that the chaos is being orchestrated from outside the country, and there are reports that a very large number of the militants are foreign nationals.
