Iran Blames Supporters of Armed Groups for Massacre of Syrian People
di Redazione(FNA) – The Iranian foreign ministry took the supporters of rebel groups and those countries which send weapons to the terrorists in Syria for the killing of innocent Syrian people.
He expressed the pleasure that Syria has passed the stage of security crisis and defeated terrorists, and added, “But certain foreign sides are pursuing their own special goals by persuading the dispatch of equipment and weapons as well as terrorist acts in the country again”.
Amir-Abdollahian called on the West, specially the US, to opt for a proper political solution to the Syrian crisis and stop support and arms supplies to terrorist groups, cautioning that such moves would yield no results but massacre of the civilians.
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.
In October 2011, calm was eventually restored in the Arab state after President Assad started a reform initiative in the country, but Israel, the US and its Arab allies are seeking hard to bring the country into chaos through any possible means. Tel Aviv, Washington and some Arab capitals have been staging various plots in the hope of stirring unrests in Syria once again.
The US and its western and regional allies have long sought to topple Bashar al-Assad and his ruling system. Media reports said that the Syrian rebels and terrorist groups have received significantly more and better weapons in recent weeks, a crime paid for by the Persian Gulf Arab states and coordinated by the United States.
The US daily, Washington Post, reported in May 2012 that the Syrian rebels and terrorist groups battling the President Bashar al-Assad’s government have received significantly more and better weapons in recent weeks, a crime paid for by the Persian Gulf Arab states and coordinated by the United States.
The newspaper, quoting opposition activists and US and foreign officials, reported that Obama administration officials emphasized the administration has expanded contacts with opposition military forces to provide the Persian Gulf nations with assessments of rebel credibility and command-and-control infrastructure.
Opposition activists who had earlier complained that the rebels were running out of ammunition said in May 2012 that the flow of weapons – most bought on the black market in neighboring countries or from elements of the Syrian military in the past – has significantly increased after a decision by Saudi Arabia, Qatar and other Persian Gulf states to provide millions of dollars in funding each month.
