Damascus, (ST) – Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif arrived in Damascus on Wednesday morning to hold talks with senior state officials on the latest developments of the situation in the region and the bilateral relations.

Zarif was received at Damascus International Airport by the Minister of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates, Dr. Fayssal Mikdad and a number of Foreign Ministry officials.

In a statement to reporters after his arrival, the Iranian Foreign Minister expressed his happiness at being in Syria again and meeting with the Syrian brothers. He indicated that, the current circumstances are very special, and it was planned to pay a visit to Syria on the eve of the elections there to hold talks with Syrian friends about this important event.

“Unfortunately, the criminal acts of the Zionist entity, which have escalated since International Al-Quds Day, and the unprecedented events that took place in Al-Aqsa Mosque and the occupied territories and the bombing of Gaza, have created rapidly deteriorating conditions in the region

He said that, the talks would include the Islamic Republic of Iran’s support for the Syrian government and people, whether on the track of reconstruction or in the fight against terrorism, in addition to the current situation in occupied Palestine.

Minister, Mikdad emphasized that this visit is important and comes at a crucial time that both countries and the region are going through ,where the aggressive Western, American and Israeli policies are escalating. There are also the Palestinian people who are now suffering as a result of the aggressive practices of the Israeli entity.”

Minister Mikdad indicated that, “targeting Syria and the Islamic Republic of Iran by Western countries has been due to the stances of these two countries on the Palestinian case and the support they provide to the Palestinian people’s struggle for liberation and building an independent state”.

Mikdad said that, the coming hours are full of many meetings, through which we hope to discuss the recent developments in both countries. On the other hand, there are issues and developments , which we will work to deal with in detail so that the coordination between our two countries will continue.
