SOT, Ali Larijani, Speaker of the Parliament of Iran (Farsi): "Our dear friend, the head of the Syrian parliament, invited us a long time ago. But due to a heavy workload and many different issues in Iran, the trip was postponed. However, regional issues are clear and Syria is our neighbour and friend country also known as one of the most important resistant axes. We always conduct negotiations and consultations with Syrian friends and the situation required some talks regarding the important issues that are happening.
