The Iran Project : The Iranian President has said that his country will continue to support friendly countries such as Syria, calling for Islamic unity in the face of the Zionist Israeli regime's crimes against Muslim countries.
According to The Iran Project, Masoud Pezeshkian made the comments in a meeting with visiting Syrian Foreign Minister Bassam al-Sabbagh in Tehran on Wednesday.
"The Islamic Republic of Iran is interested in developing and deepening relations with the friendly and brotherly Syria in various fields," he said.
The President stated that "if Islamic countries had been united, the Zionist regime would not have been able to commit crimes against Islamic countries as it has done so far," adding that "Iran would not stop supporting its friends. We believe that the unity and cooperation of Islamic countries can bring progress and excellence to all Muslims."
Pezeshkian noted that "we are ready to deepen cooperation and improve the level of relations with all Islamic countries based on respect and ensuring mutual benefits." He also stressed that relations with Syria are of special importance to Iran.
