Iran’s foreign minister in a trilateral meeting with his Syrian and Iraqi counterparts says the situation in Syria is a threat to the whole region which requires regional and international action to resolve it.
Abbas Araghchi said Iran believes that to safeguard its own security, it needs to help neighboring countries to safeguard their securities. He said the Islamic republic will provide whatever assistance it can to the Syrian government. The three top diplomats emphasized that their countries will work together to fight the common threat of terrorism. They said the armed groups opposing the Syrian government enjoy the support of some hostile countries are part of a plot to reshape the map of the region.
