The Syrian government must be supported, as a NATO attack on the country, which is cracking down on its dissidents, would further destabilize the Middle East, a senior member of the Iranian parliament said, Donya-e- Eqtesad reported.
“Throwing Syria in the jaws of a wolf called the U.S.” means “one more disaster will be inflicted upon the Islamic world,” Alaeddin Boroujerdi, who heads the parliament’s national security and foreign policy committee, said during a trip to Egypt this week, according to the Tehran-based newspaper.
“Another option is to help Syria to end its internal conflicts,” and the Syrian government’s suggested reforms are “noteworthy,” the newspaper cited Boroujerdi as saying.
“The Islamic world’s interest is to try and maintain Syria firm, as a center for Palestinian resistance,” Boroujerdi said, according to Donya-e-Eqtesad.
