Parliament: Brahimi’s Visit to Iran Indicates Failure of Western-Arab Strategies on Syria

The Iranian parliament’s research center said in a new report that the recent visit by UN- Special Envoy for Syria Lakhdar Brahimi to Tehran showed the failure of the western-Arab strategies on Syria, according to FNA.

 “Since the beginning of the crisis in Syria, Iran has underlined the necessity for finding a political Syrian-Syrian solution by paying attention to the Syrian people’s will to end the violent acts and stopping certain countries’ support for extremist and Takfiri groups,” the parliament’s Research Center said in its analytic report on Monday.

The analysis referred to the recent visit by Brahimi to Iran, and said, “The trip showed the failure of the western-Arab strategies on the crisis in Syria on one hand, and the importance and constructive role of the Islamic Republic of Iran in the new order and settlement of the regional problems on the other hand.”

It underlined that the trip took place after the Syrian army’s continued victories against the terrorists, the overthrow of Ikhwan al-Muslimun government in Egypt and the US avoidance of military intervention in Syria which showed widening gaps inside the western-Arab coalition over goals and strategies.

Iran along with a number of countries are making strenuous efforts to prevent a new war in the region by finding a political solution to the problems in Syria.

Brahimi visited Tehran late October. During the trip, he held meetings with Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani and other high-ranking officials, including Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif, to discuss the latest developments in the crisis-hit Syria .

Brahimi also held talks with senior Iranian officials on the upcoming International Geneva II Peace Conference on January 22.

He met with Zarif in Tehran, and then the two diplomats attended a joint press conference.

Brahimi told reporters that no letter has been sent to the world states to invite them to the Geneva II conference yet, “but the UN Secretary-General, me and many people are waiting to see the Islamic Republic of Iran’s participation in this meeting”.

“We are in a rush to hold this conference and we believe that many are in agreement with this view of ours,” he added.
