TEHRAN, April 12, YJC- A Russian official said that Iran’s Forging Minister will go to Moscow this week to have a trilateral meeting with his Russian and Syrian counterparts.
TEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC)- Confirming the news, Bahram Ghasemi, Iran’s FM Spokesman, said
that Zarif will travel to Russia on
Friday.
The trilateral meeting had been already announced by Russian Foreign
Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova.
The meeting will be held in the wake of a recent US missile attack on Syria.
On Friday, US warships deployed to the eastern
Mediterranean launched a barrage of 59 Tomahawk missiles against Shayrat
Airfield, southeast of the western Syrian city of Homs. Without providing any
evidence, Washington is alleging that the attack came in response to a chemical
attack by the Syrian government in Khan Shaykhun.
Meanwhile, in continuation of their consultations on confronting the
terrorists in Syria, Iran and Syria’s Defense Ministers stressed the
intensification of operations against the terrorists in a telephone talk
yesterday.
