Brahimi urges Iran to attend Geneva talks on Syria

UN-Arab League Special Representative on Syria Lakhdar Brahimi has reiterated his call on Iran to participate in the Geneva 2 conference which is expected to be held on the ongoing crisis in Syria.

During a Monday phone conversation with Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif, Brahimi described Tehran’s role in resolving regional issues as highly significant and constructive,according to Press TV.

Brahimi further expressed willingness to continue negotiations with the Islamic Republic in an effort to find a political solution to the crisis in   Syria.

Zarif, for his part, stressed Tehran’s eagerness for close cooperation with the United Nations and Brahimi on the Syrian issue.

On May 7, Russia and the United States agreed in the Russian capital, Moscow, to convene an international conference on Syria, which will serve as a follow-up to an earlier Geneva meeting held in June 2012.

The Syrian government has already announced that it is ready to take part in the peace conference without any preconditions in an effort to help end the unrest in the country.

On August 19, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Gennady Gatilov said high-ranking Russian and US officials are due to meet in The Hague next week to discuss preparations for the conference.
