Tehran, Iran, Jan. 29 – Iran’s former President Ayatollah Ali Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani described regional ally Syria as the “frontline” of Islam against the policies of the state of Israel, adding that the Islamic Republic had to defend it against enemy threats.

“Syria is the frontline of Muslim countries to fight against the anti-Islamic policies of the Zionists’ regime. We must not allow this front to be injured by the enemy”, Rafsanjani, who currently heads the State Expediency Council, said, the state-run ISNA news agency reported on Saturday.

On the issue of Iraq, the powerful cleric said, “Continuing problems and insecurity in Iraq is an excuse for the occupation to continue. The countries of the region must help the Iraqi people to be able to administer their country without foreign interference”.
