The Iranian Foreign Ministry says Ahmed Moaz al-Khatib, the head of the Syrian National Coalition, has called for Iran to help restore stability in the Arab country.
Foreign Ministry Spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast told IRNA on Wednesday that Khatib had met with Iranian Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi on the sidelines of the 49th annual Munich Security Conference on February 3, IRNA reported.
“In his meeting with Mr. Salehi, Khatib called for the use of the Islamic Republic’s capacities for the establishment of a stable situation in Syria,” Mehmanparast said.
The Syrian opposition figure wanted these talks to help realize the demands of the Syrian people through peaceful and democratic channels, and by holding elections, Mehmanparast added.
