Senior diplomat warns of Syria’s disintegration, spread of insecurity to Iraq

A high-ranking Iranian diplomat said destruction of Syria and rendering it weak in the face of the Israeli regime’s aggression have always formed part of the United States and the regime’s agenda, warning that the Arab country could fall apart amid the conflicting foreign interests that have come to affect it.
Kamal Kharrazi, head of the Islamic Republic’s Strategic Council on Foreign Relations, made the remarks in Tehran on Wednesday, in a meeting with Mohamed al-Hassan, the United Nations special representative for Iraq and head of the UN Assistance Mission for Iraq (UNAMI), Press TV reported.
Kharrazi cited remarks made by former US president Barack Obama during his tenure, in which he said, “Assad must go” as an example of Washington’s destructive ambitions towards Syria.
Kharrazi expressed concern about the Israeli regime’s efforts at availing itself of the power vacuum in the Arab country as well as Tel Aviv’s violation of the country’s sovereignty through extensive strikes in the country.
The official also warned about Syria’s disintegration on the back of the opposing interests of the foreign parties that have thrown their support behind the militants.
He also said insecurity in Syria could, meanwhile, spread to neighboring Iraq.
