Iran’s foreign minister called for the formation of an inclusive government in Syria on Monday.
Abbas Araghchi said “all ethnicities and religions” should be part of a new government in Syria.
He made the comments during a joint press conference with visiting Omani Foreign Minister Badr al-Busaidi.
Badr al-Busaidi said: “Regarding the situation in Syria, there is no doubt that we, like Iran, always emphasize a policy of non-intervention in Syria’ domestic affairs, and a policy of respecting the will and choice of the Syrian nation in deciding their future, and the importance of protecting Syria’s independence and territorial integrity.”
Araghchi also condemned a recent Israeli airstrikes on Sanaa airport
“The Islamic Republic of Iran condemns military strikes by the regime and America against the Yemeni soil and the destruction of its infrastructure. We emphasize on the preservation of Yemen’s territorial integrity and we hope that peace talks are resumed as soon as possible, so that we can stop conspiracies to start a new civil war in Yemen,” said Araghchi.
Israel said it bombed the airport because it is used by the Houthis and Iran.
