Syria's Foreign Ministry Responds Strongly to U.S. Accusations Against Iran

The Syrian Foreign Ministry described the U.S. administration as confused and only acting with the mentality of bandits.

The Syrian response came from an official source in the Syrian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, denouncing the U.S. administration's accusations against the Islamic Republic of Iran regarding Iranian support for the terrorist organization Al-Qaeda. An official source in the Syrian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates stated today, "The Syrian Arab Republic strongly deplores the accusations made by the U.S. administration against the Islamic Republic of Iran and its false claims about Iranian support for the terrorist organization Al-Qaeda, which come in the context of the U.S. hysterical campaign against Iran."

The Syrian source added that U.S. fabrications are nothing more than a desperate attempt to deflect blame from the U.S. administration, which it described as reckless, and to shift it onto others. The source clarified that the whole world has come to understand that Al-Qaeda and many other terrorist organizations are a product of American policy, indicating that they are one of the tools of U.S. politics used to terrorize peoples, destabilize the security of other nations, and subject them to American hegemony.

The source reiterated Syria's full solidarity and support for the Islamic Republic of Iran against this American nonsense, calling on all countries facing various forms of U.S. pressures and unjust measures to coordinate their positions to confront what it termed American recklessness, which poses a serious threat to security and stability in the region and the world.

Earlier, U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo stated that Al-Qaeda has recently focused its leadership within Tehran, pointing out that deputies of the organization's leader, Ayman al-Zawahiri, are currently located there. He noted that the United States has imposed sanctions on two leaders of Al-Qaeda based in Iran, as well as three leaders of the organization's Kurdish factions.
