Iran Calls for Cooperation among Regional States to Fight Terrorism

Iranian Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani in a meeting with Australian Ambassador to Tehran Paul Foley underscored the necessity for cooperation among influential regional states to fight terrorism.

During the meeting in Tehran on Wednesday, Larijani pointed to the regional crises, and said that terrorism is the most serious threat facing the region.

He called for cooperation among influential regional states in this regard.

The Australian ambassador, for his part, stressed the need for fighting extremism.

In relevant remarks in July, Head of Iraq’s Society of Scholars blamed the US and the Israeli regime for surge of terrorism and tensions in the Middle-East, especially in Iraq.

The main causes of terrorism in Iraq and other regional nations are not ignorant or jobless people, but the Global Arrogance, headed by the US and Israeli regime that have extremism under their control and use it in their own favors, Sheikh Khalid al-Mala said.

Mala said, “I remember Israeli regime’s minister of public security who said Israel keeps presence in Iraq and our agents are active in other regional countries.”

Referring to the extremism in Syria, he said, Syrian people are fighting extremist groups as Iraqi civilians did in al-Ramadi, Mosul and Tikrit.
