“…the people of the world will soon witness the defeat of foreign intruders and terrorists in this important country of the axis of resistance,” said Amir-Abdollahian.

He voiced regret over hasty foreign interventions which have led to further violence in Syria, telling foreign intruders, “The wrong and inefficient military and security course of action has not borne fruit and will definitely not bear fruit.”

He described foreign intruders as the main parties responsible for bloodshed and insecurity in Syria.

With the imminent defeat of terrorist groups, violence will stop and real political course of action will find place at the center of developments and the people of Syria will experience calm again, the official noted.

Syria has been experiencing unrest since March 2011, when foreign-backed terrorists hijacked the peaceful call of Syrians for change and took up arms against the popular government of president Bashar al Assad. Many people, including large numbers of Army and security personnel, have been killed in the violence.

The Syrian government stresses that the chaos is being orchestrated from outside the country, and that a very large number of the terrorists operating in the country are foreign nationals.
