RNA - "Our friends in the Islamic Republic of Iran stood beside Syria in the fight against terrorism and we will witness implementation of agreements signed between the two countries in the next few days," Diyab told on Saturday.

 

He referred to a recent visit by Syrian Prime Minister Imad Khamis to Iran, and said, "The visit was made in a situation that Syria has started reconstruction works."

 

Diyab underscored that Iran would play an important role in reconstruction efforts in Syria, specially Aleppo.

 

Iran has helped Syria in the fight against the terrorist groups by playing a military advisory role based on the defense agreements between the two countries.

 

In relevant remarks earlier this month, President Assad appreciated Iran for its sincere support for Damascus in the war on terrorism, and said Tehran should also be congratulated for the recent victories against the terrorist groups in Syria, specially in Aleppo.

 

"We should felicitate you on these victories (too) since they have been materialized with your support," President Assad said in a meeting with Chairman of the Iranian parliament's National Security and Foreign Policy Commission Alaeddin Boroujerdi in Damascus after the latter congratulated him on the recent successes in the war on terrorism.

 

During Khamis' recent visit to Iran which started last Monday, Tehran and Damascus signed a sum of five memoranda of understanding (MoUs) in different fields.

 

Iranian First Vice President Eshaq Jahangiri and visiting Khamis were present in the signing ceremony on Tuesday.
