Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif received Faisal Mekdad, Deputy Foreign Minister of Syria, on Monday in Tehran.
Mekdad, who was invited by the Deputy Foreign Minister for Arab-African affairs, Jaberi Ansari, reportedly discussed the latest developments in Syria with Zarif.
Mekdad criticised the Western approach to the fight against terrorism, saying, "There is a media campaign instead of a campaign against terror, which will guarantee the success of the fight. And the US and Arab countries are leading it. And that actually promotes the progress of terror." He added, "Syria, Russia and Iran are committed to the fight against terrorism."
Mekdad is to attend the joint political committee session, which Tehran and Damascus agreed to establish during the recent visit of Ansari to Syria.
