Shamkhani: Alliance among Tehran, Moscow, Damascus Defused US Procrastination Strategy in Anti-Terrorism Operations in Syria

TEHRAN- Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council (SNSC) Ali Shamkhani underlined that the military, intelligence and political alliance formed among Tehran, Moscow and Damascus has defused the US strategy of procrastination in anti-terrorism operations in Syria, according to “Fars” News Agency.

 “The close coordination among Iran, Russia and Syria in conducting the recent operations against the Takfiri terrorists in Syria brought into failure the US protracting strategy for imposing its will on the security equations in Syria,” Shamkhani said in an interview with Iran’s state-run TV on Tuesday.

Stressing that the western and Saudi media’s psychological war against increased cooperation among Iran, Russia and Syria is aimed at diverting attention from the heavy failure of their allies in Palmyra (Tadmur), Idlib, Lattakia and Aleppo, he said, “Certain western and Arab countries which have the illusion of changing the regional equations, have been paralyzed by the Islamic Republic’s political, defensive and security initiative in the recent operations.”

Shamkhani dismissed certain imprecise views on anti-terrorism cooperation between Tehran and Moscow, and said, “The all-out relations between Iran and Russia which are based on the national interests and within the framework of strategic cooperation are not merely limited to the fight against terrorism and have more extensive aspects.”

In relevant remarks on Monday, Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Bahram Qassemi underlined the strategic ties between Tehran and Moscow, and said both countries share the same views over war on ISIL and terrorism in the region.

“Relations between Iran and Russia are strategic,” Qassemi told reporters in a press conference in Tehran.

“Iran and Russia enjoy similar views over campaign against the ISIL and terrorism in the region and security is important to us and we don’t spare any efforts to maintain the country’s security,” he added.
