“The first message is to support the government and nation of Syria in their fight against terrorist-Takfiri groups,” Araghchi said during a press conference after the meeting on Friday.
He said the terrorist-Takfiri groups in Syria are undoubtedly carrying out these attacks as part of an American-Zionist conspiracy.
“Today we had good meetings in Baghdad and we reviewed bilateral issues between the two countries, and the developments in Syria were particularly discussed,” he said.
He noted that there is a common understanding between the two countries with regard to the Syrian issue, adding, “I had close consultations with Iraqi officials, and that is why we are pursuing our activities jointly, both regionally and internationally.”
Solving crises
Prior to attending the trilateral meeting in Baghdad, Iraq, Araghchi told reporters that the meetings and talks are held for the purpose of arriving at a conclusion to solve the crises.
As he said, his visit to Iraq took place in line with his regional tour which started from Syria and led him to Turkiye.
During the talks, various solutions will be proposed that would help solve the crises, according to Araghchi.
Iraqi PM: Syria events inseparable from those in Gaza, Lebanon
Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia’ Al Sudani says what is happening in Syria is inseparable from the events in the Gaza Strip and Lebanon.
Sudani was speaking at a meeting with Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi in Baghdad on Friday, when the two sides discussed the latest developments in the region, particularly Syria.
“The events in Syria are inseparable from those witnessed in Gaza and Lebanon, which have threatened the security and stability of the region,” he said.
According to a statement released by the Iraqi Prime Minister's Media Office, Sudani said Baghdad's official position on Syria is consistent, namely the unity of Syria and its security and stability.
He stressed the importance of respecting the territorial integrity of Syria, saying Iran will continue its serious diplomatic efforts to contain the Syrian crisis, given the effects of the crisis on Iraq’s security.
Over the past several days, Araghchi has traveled to key regional countries including Syria, Turkey and Iraq to exchange views on the latest regional developments, especially the situation in Syria.
