Assad: Iran a Key Partner for Syria
EghtesadOnline: Praising Iran as a “key partner” for Syria, the Arab country’s president said the two nations will continue combating terrorism until the ultimate defeat of terrorist organizations.
Iran is a key partner for Syria and has stood by the Syrian people in the face of the terrorist war and provided them with support in all fields, Bashar al-Assad said in a meeting with visiting Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf and his accompanying delegation in Damascus on Wednesday, SANA reported.
The Syrian leader pointed out that the coordination between the two countries in combating terrorism has brought about positive results on the ground and will continue until the liberation of all lands and the defeat of terrorist organizations.
Qalibaf said the recent elections in Syria and Iran and the will of the Syrian and Iranian people in determining their future prove the failure of the pressure policies that are being exerted against them, and stressed that no one can stand in the way of the two nations’ will.
