Tehran, YJC. Iran’s Ambassador to Syria says that the Syrian opposition are not organized enough to attend the Geneva II meeting.

Mohammadreza
Sheybani said in an interview with the Lebanese news agency Al-Ahd that it will
help resolve the Syrian crisis if Iran and all other influential parties attend
the Geneva II conference.
The
Iranian Ambassador added "The Syrian opposition are the reason for the delay in
holding the meeting because they are not ready, which is itself due to their
sense of inferiority before the Syrian Army and their diffusion and lack of
harmony.”
He further
said that another reason behind the delay is disagreements between the US and
Russia on the participation of countries concerned, Iran in particular.
Sheybani
then pointed to the in-field power balance in Syria and said that the Syrian
Army and government are the weightier side, the Army being able to choose where
and when to engage in battle.
The
Syrian national resistance which involves popular participation under the name
of national resistance army against armed forces is among the factors which the
Iranian Ambassador believes has given more weight to the Syrian Army and
government than the opposition.
