In Damascus, Araghchi vows Iran’s full-fledged support for Syria in anti-terror fight
The meeting came a few days after terror outfits led by the Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) launched their largest assault in Syria in years and took control of parts of the country's second-biggest city, Aleppo, and advanced southward toward the city of Hama.
The Syrian army announced later that it thwarted the large-scale terrorist operations through a preemptive strike.
The Iranian minister conveyed warm greetings from Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei and President Masoud Pezeshkian to the Syrian president and nation.
He said the recent terror acts in Syria are part of a plot hatched by enemies of stability and security in the region.
Such incidents also expose that the terrorists’ sinister goals are in line with those of the United States and the Israeli regime which seek to spread warmongering and insecurity in the region and make up for the Zionists’ failures in the face of the resistance front, he added.
The top Iranian diplomat expressed confidence that Syria, like in the past, will also this time manage to defeat terrorist groups.
He reaffirmed Iran’s full support for Syria to counter acts of aggression by the Israeli regime and terrorist groups.
Speaking to reporters before his departure, the Iranian foreign minister said Iran makes no distinction between the Israeli regime and the Takfiri terrorists.
