Iranian Foreign Minister: US resumes struggle with government forces in Syria

25
Mohammad Javad Zarif, Foreign Minister of the Islamic Republic of Iran, commented on the recent US actions in Syria. According to an Iranian official, Washington decided to once again move away from the concept of defeating ISIL (* forbidden in Russia) in favor of another concept. It consists in the next attempts to displace the legitimate president of the SAR, Bashar Assad, and to prevent the government forces of Syria from taking control of the SAR’s border with Iraq.

The statement of Mohammad Javad Zarif leads RIA News:
It seems to me that today priorities have changed, and for the US government it is more important not to allow the Syrian government to regain control of the border with Iraq than to defeat ISIS (*).


Iranian Foreign Minister: US resumes struggle with government forces in Syria


This statement was made by the Iranian foreign minister at a meeting of the Asian society in New York.

The Iranian minister said that Iran’s priorities in Syria do not change. According to Zarif, Tehran’s main goal is to inflict a final defeat on the Islamic State terrorist group (*).

Recall that Israel accuses Iran of supporting the Hezbollah group in the SAR. It is considered terrorist by the Israeli authorities. At the same time, the group ISIS (*) as a terrorist Israel, by and large, is not considered.

      It’s not that they didn’t stop. And that’s ours go to cooperate with the so-called “coalition”, but in fact with the enemies.

    At the same time, ISIS (*) is not considered by Israel as a terrorist group.

        We manage, but against ISIS. But you manage to strike at Syrian government forces thereby helping terrorists.

        Well, Hezbollah is essentially fighting only against the United States and you. And IS declared jihad to the whole world. It’s strange that you and everyone are quiet so far request Pah-pah as they say, but still strange

    It is time to understand that Isil, Iran, Assad, Hisbollah are terrorist entities ....
    In Iran and Syria, the ruling elite seized power through a coup ....
    In Iran, religious fanatics seized power, for which, in the order of things, they kill women with stones for leaving their family to another husband, publicly hang their political opponents, and blow up premises where more than 100 people died in Argentina.
    In Syria, the Assad clan seized power ... for the second time in recent years, the population rebelled against the Assad clan,
    The main demands of the opposition were: the resignation of President Bashar al-Assad, the conduct of democratic reforms in the country.
    A civil war was fought between the government army and the Free Syrian Army (SSA), but the terrorists of Hisbollah and Iran intervened in the war.
    Only after 2 years of civil war in Syria did the Igil terrorists appear.

      It's time to realize that Isil Iran, Assad, Hisbollah - terrorist education ....

      Who to understand? With regard to Iran and Assad, only those who support ISIS (the so-called "moderate"), Israel, and of course the United States with satellites think so. Judging by what you wrote, you are a representative of the promised land.

        In my opinion, you are trying in vain. These citizens of the promised land can not be persuaded. Moreover, they have friendly relations with ISIS

    Iran is a great ancient country with its own traditions and culture.
    She is an order of magnitude more free and democratic than the beloved Western hearts of Saudi Arabia.
    At one time, she survived the war with Iraq, which was supported by the United States.
    She survived under prolonged sanctions.
    Iran is our neighbor and real partner, unlike the Western "partners."

    It is surprising that what is happening in Syria does not teach our leaders anything, but how many more of our generals must be killed by the IS with the help of the CIA to get insight? !!! Nothing is simpler: US troops are not legally located in Syria and the same means must be used against them as the IGs that they patronize ... Although this "focus" in the US has been in the program for many years, what is their participation worth? Hitler’s armament and “incitement” to the USSR, and then abruptly became our allies (although their companies supplied Germany most of the war, starting with oil, etc., on the list). There is only one conclusion with the bandits' accomplices: they should act like bandits and not behave like an institute that “... wants to keep itself and acquire capital ..” Politics is a dirty business, especially from the US and its allies and they need not be answered less than adequate!
