Bigdeli Voices Hope for End of Crisis in Syria after Geneva II Conference

TEHRAN – Tehran hopes that the upcoming Geneva II conference in Switzerland will end the crisis in Syria and return tranquility to the country, Iranian Ambassador to Turkey Alireza Bigdeli said,according to FNA.

Bigdeli expressed hope that holding Geneva II conference in July would end crisis in Syria, and called the meeting as an opportunity.

He told the Turkish Daily ‘Miliyet’ on Wednesday that everybody believes that the Syrian problem has no military solution.

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

The US and its western and regional allies have long sought to topple the Syrian government. Media reports said that “rebels” in  Syria rand terrorist groups have received significantly more and better weapons, a crime paid for by the Gulf Arab states and coordinated by the United States.

The US daily, Washington Post, reported in May 2012 that “rebels” in  Syria and terrorist groups battling  the Syrian  government have received significantly more and better weapons in recent weeks.
