Iranian Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi stressed Friday the necessity of finding a settlement to Syria’s problems by the Muslim country’s people, and warned against the spread of the crisis to all parts of the Middle East.
Salehi made the remarks in a message conveyed to his Lebanese counterpart Adnan Mansour by Iranian Ambassador to Beirut Ghadanfar Roknabadi on Friday.
“The Islamic Republic is in constant contact with different regional states to prevent the harmful aftermaths of some regional developments from spreading to the entire region”, Salehi said in his message.
Meanwhile, a senior Iranian military commander confirmed that “popular resistance movement similar to the Lebanese resistance movement, Hizbullah, is taking shape in Syria against the terrorists and extremist groups”.
Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces Major General Hassan Firouzabadi said that the current triumph over extremist groups in Syria was the outcome of the leadership of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and the support of the Syrian nation.
He said President al-Assad is the sole leader in Syria who is capable of safeguarding territorial integrity and independence of the country.
He further lauded al-Assad’s strategies against terrorist groups, and stated, “Thanks to his strategic will, a Hizbullah-like popular resistance has been formed throughout Syria, which is growing more solid and unified now”.
The Iranian commander said people in those areas taken back from Takfiri and Wahhabi terrorist groups have joined this popular mobilization.
