MP: Syria developments undermine Iran’s political interests

The developments in Syria are detrimental to Iran’s foreign policy, Iranian MP Karen Khanlarian said.

“The ongoing processes in Syria are different from the political scenarios in Egypt and Libya,” he said, ruling out the reoccurrence of the Arab Spring in Syria.

The MP further noted it difficult to make forecasts on Syrian developments.

“As for Iran, it stresses the need for reforms in Syria, deeming them possible exclusively through internal forces rather than foreign intervention,” Khanlarian said.
