Salehi, Brahimi Urge Political Solution to Crisis in Syria

International

Iranian Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi and UN Special Envoy to Syria Lakhdar Brahimi have stressed the need for a political solution to the crisis in Syria, according to Press TV.

In a telephone conversation on Wednesday, the officials called on all sides to throw their weight behind a negotiated solution to the prolonged unrest in the Arab country.

Salehi praised Brahimi for his efforts to end the crisis in Syria and invited the UN envoy to visit Tehran for further talks on the issue.

For his part, Brahimi also hailed Iran for its sustained efforts to help find a solution to violence in Syria and Tehran’s active participation in different conferences held on Syria.

Brahimi thanked Salehi for his invitation and expressed willingness to visit Iran.

Syria has been plagued by deadly unrest since March 2011.

Reports indicate that Western powers and their regional allies, especially Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey, are supporting the militants fighting against the Syrian government.

Many of the armed groups operating inside Syria are foreign nationals.

Iran has repeatedly voiced its opposition to any foreign interference in Syria’s internal affairs, calling for inclusive dialogue and national reconciliation as well as free elections as the keys to the settlement of the crisis in the country.
