Iranian MP slams UN�s inaction on Syrian crisis

8 Jan 2017 - 10:38


IFP- �The UN Security Council should take a strategic role to handle the Syrian crisis and bring peace and safety to the region,� stressed Alireza Rahimi, an Iranian Parliament member.

According to a Farsi report by ICANA, he went on to say that while ceasefires should be arranged based on long-term, strategic perspectives, some regional rulers plan ceasefires for their unilateral interests.

�As the opposing forces don�t act cohesively, Turkey can�t guarantee that the opposition won�t violate the ceasefire in Syria,� he noted, referring to the guarantee given by Turkey for the ceasefire in Syria.

�Turkey, on the other hand, has taken no definitive approach to Syrian crisis,� he added.

�The peace negotiations are very difficult to conduct, because major world powers, as well as opposing forces, seek opposing interests in Syria.�

He believes that Syrian truce failed due to a lack of cohesion among Takfiris [extremists] and the opposition.

�Every time they come to the negotiating table to reach just a relative agreement on ceasefire, and then violate it,� he added.
