Mehmanparast: Deploying Patriot Missiles on Turkish-Syrian Borders Complicates

Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast said on Friday that Turkey’s demands that the NATO deploy Patriot missiles on its borders with Syria doesn’t help resolve the crisis in Syria, rather it complicates the situation and makes it more difficult.

Mehmanparast said that the insistence of some sides to resolve the Syrian issue using military action is one of the main factors of increasing tensions and threats in the region, adding that it’s more suitable for all countries – particularly influential ones – to help find a political solution to crises in the region.
