Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad, who is currently visiting Iran, held here today talks with Iranian Foreign Minister Kamal Kharrazi on issues of mutual interest. Speaking on the occasion, Al-Assad said Syria and Iran have common views on the developments of the situation in the Middle East and Iraq. On his part, Kharrazi underscored the importance of the visit of Al-Assad to Iran, and said the only way for the settlement of the Iraqi problem is formation of legal institutions which genuinely represent the Iraqi people. On the current situation in Occupied Palestine, Kharrazi said violence practiced by the Zionist entity would never succeed in preventing the Palestinian people from obtaining their legitimate rights.
