Envoy reiterates Iran's support for peaceful settlement of Syrian crisis

TEHRAN (FNA)- Irans Ambassador to Paris Ali Ahani underscored that the only way out of the bloodshed in Syria is encouraging all sides involved in the crisis to partake in national dialogue, warning that any form of military intervention in the Muslim country will have dire consequences for the entire region.


The Iranian envoy underlined that the Syrian crisis has no military solution and that all opposition groups and the government should be persuaded to sit around negotiation table.

Ahani added that Iran has always supported Syrian nation and its legitimate government, Radio France Info reported on Friday.

Ahani firmly stressed that military intervention by the US and its western and regional allies will make the situation more complicated and will postpone access to a political solution.

Syria has been experiencing unrest since March 2011 with organized attacks by well-armed gangs against Syrian police forces and border guards being reported across the country.

Hundreds of people, including members of the security forces, have been killed, when some protest rallies turned into armed clashes.

The government blames outlaws, saboteurs, and armed terrorist groups for the deaths, stressing that the unrest is being orchestrated from abroad.

Tel Aviv, Washington and some Arab capitals have been staging various plots to topple President Bashar al-Assad, who is well known in the world for his anti-Israeli stances.

In the recent days, the US and other western countries have adopted the rhetoric of war against Syria over allegations that the Syrian government was behind a recent chemical attack near Damascus.

The call for military strike intensified after the militants operating inside Syria and the foreign-backed Syrian opposition claimed on August 21 that hundreds had been killed in a government chemical attack on militant strongholds in the Damascus suburbs of Ain Tarma, Zamalka and Jobar. The Syrian government has strongly denied the claim, accusing the militants of the attack.
