The terrorists of the” Islamic state “is not Once captured the lion’s share of Iraq and Syria, but also openly proclaim the intention to push the entire region of the Middle East and North Africa in the abyss of religious wars. Extremists kill and humiliate the Christians carried out horrific punishment of journalists.

Syria and Iran – are natural allies in the fight against LIH, and their participation in our meeting today could greatly enrich our work. Moral standards that underpin the fight against terrorism should not be eroded, “- said the Minister.
