Iranian Majlis Speaker Ali Larijani has said that the Islamic Republic and Turkey can help restore peace in Syria, according to MNA.
Larijani made the remarks during a meeting with his Turkish counterpart Cemil Cicek on the sidelines of the first conference of parliamentary assembly of the Economic Cooperation Organization (ECO) countries in Islamabad on Monday.
Iran and Turkey can help calm the situation in Syria “particularly at the current atmosphere that the Zionist regime (of Israel) is exploiting the situation,” Larijani said.
He also said that Tehran supports political reforms in Syria and believes that democracy cannot be established through “guns”.
Larijani put emphasis on consultation between Iran and Turkey to help resolve the crisis in Syria.
