Tehran : Iranian Minister of Foreign Affairs Manouchehr Mottaki affirmed on Saturday Iran’s support of Syria’s right to restore the occupied Syrian Golan, saying “the occupied Golan is Syrian land that should be returned to Syria.”
In a joint press conference with Chairman of the political bureau of Hamas Khalemd Mishaal in Tehran, Mottaki pointed out that Israel is in no position to dictate terms for withdrawal from the occupied Arab lands, including the Golan.
For his part, Mishaal said “we support the restoration of the Golan and the rest of the occupied Arab lands to their homeland,” adding that he is confident that Syria will not neglect the Palestinian people’s rights.
Mishaal went on to affirm that the Palestinians are determined to break the Israeli siege on Gaza Strip, and that all options are available for breaking that siege.
He added that the US administration is preventing Palestinian reconciliation in order to impose a settlement that meets the Israeli demands.
