| Muallem Says Syria Committed to Iran Attending Geneva 2 |
| 2013-12-30 |
| [An Nahar] Syria is committed to its key regional ally Iran attending a planned peace conference next month to which it has yet to be invited, Foreign Minister Walid Muallem said Sunday. "Syria is committed to Iran joining the peace conference," the official SANA news agency quoted Muallem as saying at a media forum. "It is illogical that the United States or the so-called opposition exclude this country from the conference for political reasons," he said. Iran does not figure on a list named by global peace envoy Lakhdar Brahimi in Geneva on December 20 for the January 22 conference dubbed Geneva 2. "On Iran, we haven't agreed yet," Brahimi told news hounds after talks with U.S. and Russian officials. |
