Salehi criticizes Arab League for suspending Syria

IRNA - Islamic Republic News Agency

Tehran, Nov 16, IRNA -- Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi said on Wednesday that the Arab League made a hasty decision to suspend Syrian membership which will have negative impacts on security of the region.

Speaking to IRNA, Salehi said the Arab League should resolve the issue in a way not to harm security of the region but they adopted the contrary.

He said that the Syrian government has declared for many times that it will meet the legitimate needs of its nation by launching reform program.

The Syrian government has promised to authorize different political parties and will hold parliamentary elections while President Bashar al-Assad has vowed to revise the country’s constitution in due course, Salehi said.

'Some attempted to create obstacles to peace and security of the region and they assume they will escape safe from the devastating consequences. Something which is totally wrong.'
