The country is trying to overshadow settlement of Syrian crisis through tension-creating measures,” he said in a meeting with the United Nations Special Envoy for Syria, Staffan de Mistura here in Tehran.

He also said that Saudi has attacked Iranian embassy in Sana’a and made the staff injured to hide its negative approaches, adding Iran acts responsibly in protecting the embassies in return.
