Iran, UN discuss Syria situation

Khaji and Pederson agreed that the 6th Syrian Constitutional Committee must convene to advance talks to peacefully resolve the Syria crisis.

Khaji opposed Western pressures and sanctions on the Syrian government. He referred to the hardship the Syrian people face due to the sanctions and the Covid-19 pandemic and called for efforts to increase humanitarian assistance for Syrians and to speed up aid deliveries.
