The defense chiefs of Iran, Russia and Syria have called for closer trilateral cooperation in the battle against terrorism, emphasizing the need to keep up the fight until the eradication of violence and terror threats.
On Wednesday night, Iranian Defense Minister Brigadier General Hussein Dehqan sat down for three-way talks with his Russian and Syrian counterparts, Sergei Shoigu and Fahd Jassem al-Freij, on the sidelines of the VI Moscow Conference on International Security.
During the talks, the three sides exchanged views on the latest developments in Syria as well as the counterterrorism operations underway in the crisis-hit country.
They also called for “convergent efforts” by Tehran, Moscow and Damascus towards uprooting violence and Takfiri terrorism.
The trio also slammed a recent US missile attack against a Syrian army airfield as well as Washington’s blatant support for terrorists, urging an end to such evil acts of violence, which facilitate the spread of terror activities to elsewhere in the Middle East region and the entire world.
