Iran: Friends of Syria Meeting Aims to Find Practical Solution to crisis in Syria

TEHRAN (ST)- The meeting of friends of Syria which will be held in Iran’s capital city later in May will try to find a peaceful and practical solution to the crisis in Syria , Iran’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations Mohammad Khazayee said.

Khazayee reiterated in a statement that the friends of Syria meeting slated for May 29 also proves the Islamic Republic’s key role in this peaceful approach.

He further noted that the third meeting of the Syria friends is slated for May 29, 2013, in Tehran as a follow up to the two previous ones also held in the Iranian capital.

He said Iran believes the upcoming meeting could pave the way for further coordination among the countries which are Syria’s true friends to help the country overcome the crisis.

He hoped the meeting could result in working out of a practical solution to the crisis in  Syria.

Iran has intensified diplomatic efforts to end the ongoing crisis in Syria.

Last week, Iranian Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi said his recent tour of the regional states was aimed at preventing the spread of the crisis in Syria into the region, and added that the regional countries share Tehran’s views on Syria.

“The Islamic Republic of Iran is in constant contact with different regional states to prevent the harmful aftermaths of some regional developments from spreading to the entire region,” Salehi said on the sidelines of a conference dubbed as ‘Diplomacy and Soft Power in the Great Prophet’s (PBUH) Sirah (life and tradition)’ in Tehran.

Salehi also said that during his trip to Damascus he had a meeting with Syrian President Bashar al-Assad to share the world and regional countries’ views on the crisis in Syria with Assad, and said “good decisions were made” at the meeting.

Salehi ended his two-day tour of Jordan and Syria last Wednesday. The Iranian foreign minister, heading a high-ranking delegation, started a visit to Jordan and Syria last week to discuss bilateral ties and regional developments, the Syrian crisis in particular.
