Khamenei calls events in Syria a product of joint American and Zionist plan

The military coup in Syria was organized by the United States and Israel with the support of a "neighboring country." This was stated by Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei during his address to the people, BELTA writes

"There should be no doubt that what happened in Syria is the product of a joint American and Zionist plan. Yes, one neighboring country with Syria plays an obvious role and continues to play it now - everyone can see it, but the main conspirator and the main control center are in America. We have evidence," Ali Khamenei said.

Earlier, the deputy chairman of the Iranian parliament's National Security Committee (Majlis) Abbas Moghtadaei, speaking in Moscow at a plenary session of the CSTO Parliamentary Assembly, said that only the Syrian people have the right to determine their own destiny, and the interference of the United States and Israel in Syria's affairs will lead to even greater escalation and a surge in violence. According to him, Iran, "being at the forefront of the fight against unipolarity," has always stated that interference in the affairs of Middle Eastern states by the United States and its allies is unacceptable.
