Ahmadinejad: Syria, Iran Will Create New World Order

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said Syria and Iran plan to create a new world order, following his meeting with Syrian Parliament Speaker Mahmoud Al Abrash in Tehran on Thursday.

Ahmadinejad said the US would eventually be forced by the two states to stop interfering in the region and withdraw its military.

"Iran and Syria have a joint mission to create a new world order on the basis of justice, humanity and belief in God," Ahmadinejad said.

Mehr news agency quoted the Iranian leader as saying: "At the current juncture, the role of Iran and Syria is historic and therefore bilateral cooperation should be increased".

"Iran and Syria have similar viewpoints, interests and enemies," he said. "The resistance of the nations like those of Iran and Syria has caused the global arrogance to reach a dead end in its Middle East policies," the President said.

For his part, the Syrian speaker said that Tehran and Damascus, in a united front, would side by side continue resistance against the global arrogance.

He added that the two countries should boost ties in order to defuse the plots hatched by the enemies against their respective nations.
