Iran’s Araqchi, Syria’s Assad Meet In Damascus

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi and Syrian President Bashar al-Assad at a meeting in Damascus talked about the latest developments in the Arab country whose Aleppo city has fallen to terrorists after the eruption of a new wave of insurgency. 

During the Sunday meeting, Araqchi conveyed the warm greetings of Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian to Assad.

He reaffirmed Tehran’s principled position of providing comprehensive support for the Syrian government, people, and armed forces in their fight against terrorism and in safeguarding regional security and stability, the Foreign Ministry’s website reported.

Araqchi described the recent activities of terrorist groups in Syria as part of the conspiracies orchestrated by the enemies of regional stability and security.

He further highlighted the alignment of the malevolent objectives of terrorist groups with those of the US and the Israeli regime in perpetuating conflict and insecurity in the region and compensating for Israel’s’ failures against the Resistance Front.

Araqchi expressed confidence that Syria, as it had previously triumphed over terrorism, would once again overcome terrorist groups.

He emphasized Iran’s unwavering and comprehensive support for the Syrian government, people, and resistance in confronting the aggression of the Israeli regime and terrorist groups. Araqchi described this strategic approach as essential for preserving enduring stability and security in the region and safeguarding the security of all regional nations.

For his part, President Assad expressed gratitude for the support of the Iranian government and people.

Assad conveyed his regards to Iran’s Leader and president, praising Tehran’s responsible and resolute stance in supporting the stability and security of regional countries, particularly Syria, in the face of the ominous phenomenon of terrorism.

He underscored the importance of collective and responsible efforts by all regional states to eradicate terrorism, which solely benefits the enemies of Islamic nations, particularly the Zionist regime.

The Syrian president also described the Iranian foreign minister’s visit to Damascus at this critical juncture as highly significant, interpreting it as a message of Iran’s steadfast support for and solidarity with the countries of the resistance axis against the Israeli regime.
