RNA - "The failure of the recent US-led aggression on Syria showed the solidity of the resistance front and the success of its counter-terrorism efforts," Boroujerdi said in a meeting with Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in Damascus on Monday.

The senior Iranian lawmaker underlined that the Islamic Republic will always remain staunch in its support for Syria, vowing to keep up efforts to find a political solution to the Syrian crisis that would preserve the country's national unity and territorial sovereignty.

According to Fars News Agancy, Boroujerdi also held talks with Syrian Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign and Expatriates Minister Walid al-Moallem about ways to further improve bilateral relations and the latest regional and international developments, particularly the US-led military attack and the recurring Israeli acts of aggression against Syria.

In relevant remarks on Saturday, Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said that military approaches would fail to resolve the Syrian crisis, stressing that military intervention of certain countries has only prolonged the sufferings of people in the war-stricken state.
