Iranian foreign minister says he fears 'renewed civil war' in Syria
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi commented on the fall of Syria's government during an interview on Iranian state TV on Sunday.
He said Syria's ousted president, Bashar al-Assad, was “surprised” and “complained about the way his own army was performing.”
Araghchi also said Iran was fully aware of the situation in Syria through “the intelligence and security system of our country.”
Iran is monitoring the developments in Syria and is concerned about the “possibility of a renewed civil war or a sectarian war between different sects or the division of Syria and the collapse of Syria and its transformation into a haven for terrorists,” Araghchi said.
