Iran takes part in Syria reconstruction plans: MP

Tehran, Aug 8, IRNA – A senior Iranian parliamentarian said here on Monday that reconstruction process has been started in the war-torn Syria and Iran is ready to take part in it.

Talking to IRNA, member of the Majlis Commission on National Security and Foreign Policy Shahrouz Barzegar said Syria has asked Iran to help reconstruct this Arab country.

Touching upon the recent visit of Majlis Commission on National Security and Foreign Policy members to Lebanon and Syria, he added the Iranian and Syrian officials have reviewed the ways for reconstructing this Arab country.

Last week, an Iranian parliamentary delegation comprising Hajar Chenarani, Barzegar and Alaeddin Boroujerdi, chairman of the commission went to Syria and Lebanon for a five-day visit.

Barzegar added there would be several good news for Syria and Lebanon in near future.

Calling for quick reconstruction of Syria, he added Iran would not allocate financial assistance, but is seeking to activate Iranian private sector in this war-torn country.

He also underscored that the presence of Iranian private sector in Syria would pave the way for expansion of Iran's investment in this Arab country.

While in Syria and Lebanon, the Iranian delegation met with a number of senior Lebanese and Syria officials on various bilateral and regional developments.
