Rouhani: Arabs, West Miscalculated in Syria

Local Editor
Iranian President Hassan Rouhani accused Arab and Western governments of miscalculating in their backing for Syrian armed terrorists.

Speaking at a reception for Syria's visiting parliament speaker Jihad al-Lahham, Rouhani renewed Tehran's longstanding accusation that it was those governments' support for armed insurgency against its Damascus ally that had led to the rise of the terrorists.
"Unfortunately some countries miscalculated and thought that terrorist groups would be a means for them to achieve their objectives, whereas sooner or later they were always going to be affected by the scourge of terrorism themselves," he said.
In parallel, the Iranian President highlighted that "after four years of resistance and perseverance, the plan of the enemies of Syria who thought they could dominate it within a few months has fallen apart."
"The government and nation of Iran will stand by the government and nation of Syria till the end."
Rouhani expressed confidence that Syrian will triumph over terrorism, because the approach which its enemies had adopted in supporting terrorism is wrong and the foreign countries.
