Hussein Amir Abdullahian, Deputy Foreign Minister of Iran
We witness very quick changes in the region of the Middle East.
We see that political spheres in Bahrain and Syria are changing.
Despite the fact that reforms of Bashar Assad are carried out at a fast pace,
we see in Syria foreign interference into affairs of the country.
Terrorist groups using some foreign forces have conducted operations in Aleppo and Damascus recently.
Along with other terrorist armed groups, Al-Qaeda is acting in Syria.
At the same time, American officials and some officials of regional countries
export light heavy armaments to the region.
Thousands of armament unities came to Syria from some neighboring countries,
and some of these armaments go to soldiers of Al-Qaeda.
Unfortunately, Americans and other countries do not take steps on control over Syrian borders.
Recently a plot was discovered in Damascus.
Armed groups, militants took efforts to capture Damascus.
However, Syria managed to cope with this stage of the crisis.
Now Syrian forces are dealing with the clearance of terrorist groups in Aleppo
which is the second most important city in the country.
Tehran and Moscow have similar positions on the Syrian problem.
We support the people of Syria, support the plan of reforms by President Bashar Assad.
We judge foreign intervention and reject terrorist attacks.
We believe that the support of militant groups by some countries leads to the fact
that instability will spread to neighboring countries.
There is no military solution for the Syrian crisis.
The way out is political.
As for the situation in Bahrain, we absolutely reject the double-standard policy
of some countries on the situation in Bahrain.
Iran provides solid and logical policy on developments in the region.
If we speak about Bahrain and Syria, in both countries we reject and judge foreign intervention;
we stand for an end to the violence and judge the *** of a peaceful population.
We reject military settlement of the issues.
The way out is a national dialogue and composing the government of national peacemaking.
We believe that some countries try to bring instability to the region.
