WH Says US Open to Stand by Iran, Russia to Solve Syrian Crisis

Local Editor

The United States is ready to cooperate with Iran and Russia to resolve the crisis in Syria, the White House press secretary said.

"As we've said before, the United States remains open to working together with both Russia and Iran to find a solution that leads to a stable and united Syria," Spicer said according to the White House website.

Meanwhile, the White House Press Secretary referring to the Syrian current government, said "the Trump administration believes that Syria's political future should be decided by Syrians in a free, credible and transparent process."

Earlier, Trump announced that his government tends to cooperate with Syrian government in fighting the terrorist group Daesh [the Arabic acronym for ‘ISIS/ISIL']. But following the chemical incident in Syria Washington alleged was conducted by the Syrian government against its own people the White House changed its stance.

The Trump administration called for removing al-Assad from power saying that Damascus is accountable for the so-called attack, an allegation strongly denied by Damascus.

Political observers believe that white House readiness to cooperate with Iran is a considerable change in Trump's hostile approach towards the Islamic Republic of Iran.
