TEHRAN – The Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman has stressed that the Islamic Republic will spare no efforts to help the ongoing nationwide ceasefire in the war-stricken Syria persist.

Speaking to the Arabic-language Al-Alam TV on Sunday, Bahram Qassemi underlined that Tehran’s stance on the prolonged Syrian crisis has always been clear and unchanging.

“The Syrian issue will have no military solution and ultimately a political solution should be reached,” he said, adding that the war cannot continue forever.
