Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif warned against the consequences of military confrontation between Syrian and Turkey, saying the Islamic Republic “reiterates its readiness to” mediate between the two neighbors, APA reports citing Tasnim.
“Iran reiterates its readiness to facilitate dialogue among brother neighbors Turkey and Syria,” Zarif said on his Twitter account on Monday night.
“Escalation of tensions only serves interests of terrorists and their sponsors,” he wrote, adding, “Avoidance of bloodshed and respect for sovereignty & territorial integrity is imperative.”
