Ahmadinejad: Crisis in Syria Part of Enemies’ Scenario for Hegemony over Region

TEHRAN – Enemies plot to dominate the entire region through different scenarios like the crisis in Syria, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad warned, underlining that the problems in Syria should merely be settled through negotiations and national unity.

“The enemies are seeking to dominate the whole region and the Syrian issue is just part of a bigger scenario, therefore, all people should be vigilant in order not to be fooled by the game of the enemy,” Ahmadinejad said in a meeting with the visiting Lebanese Foreign Minister, Adnan Mansour, in Tehran on Sunday,according to FNA.

He also referred to the situation in Syria, and stressed that national unity and understanding is the only way to improve the current conditions in the country.

“Violence doesn’t solve any problem and the two sides should negotiate and agree with each other and administer their country through sympathy and solidarity,” Ahmadinejad continued.

Syria has been experiencing unrest since March 2011 with organized attacks by well-armed gangs against Syrian police forces and border guards being reported across the country.
