Iranian Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi called on Armenia to condemn
the recent use of chemical weapons by the terrorists against the
Syrian nation, Fars news agency reported.
The source recalls that earlier this month, terrorists fired a rocket
containing chemical substances in the Khan al-Assal area of rural
Aleppo and reports indicated that around 25 people were killed,
most of them civilians.
The Iranian foreign minister made the remarks in a message to his
Armenian counterpart Edward Nalbandian on Monday.
"As one of the main victims of such weapons, the Islamic Republic
calls on Armenia to spare no effort to prevent the repetition of
similar incidents in future," Salehi said in his message. Salehi's
message was conveyed to Nalbandian by Iranian Ambassador to Yerevan
Mohammad Rayeesi. Syria has asked for an independent investigation
into the use of chemical weapons by militants in Aleppo.
The chemical attack came after a video footage posted on the internet
late in January showed that the armed militants in Syria possessed
canisters containing chemical substances, Fars reported.
