Without the participation of regional states, air assaults will not resolve the terrorism problem in the Middle East region, Rouhani told the 14th Shanghai Cooperation Organization summit in the Tajik capital Dushanbe on Friday.
"Fighting terrorism needs organized planning, bilateral and multilateral cooperation and elimination of economic and cultural poverty," the president said, urging regional countries to use their potential to combat terrorism.
Resolution of the issue of terrorism requires an international commitment, he added.
One month after launching airstrikes against Islamic States (ISIS/ISIL) militants in Iraq, US President Barack Obama vowed on Wednesday that he "will not hesitate to take action" against the IS in Syria and Iraq, adding that Washington will work with its friends and allies to "degrade and ultimately destroy" IS forces.
He noted that the United States will lead a broad coalition to use air power to take out IS forces "wherever they exist," and roll back this terrorist threat which is posed to the people of Iraq and Syria, as well as those in the broader Middle East including American personnel and facilities.

Irão acusa EUA de violar soberania dos Estados a pretexto da luta contra terrorismo...
ReplyDelete"Com o pretexto de lutarem contra o terrorismo, os Estados Unidos querem prosseguir a sua política unilateral de violação da soberania dos Estados", disse o secretário do Conselho de Segurança do Irão, Ali Shamkhani, citado pela agência noticiosa iraniana IRNA.
Em seu entender, Washington tenta com isso distrair a opinião pública mundial do papel-chave que tem tido em apoiar e equipar os terroristas na Síria na luta contra o governo legítimo do país.
Shamkhani criticava assim a coligação internacional promovida pelos Estados Unidos para combater os jihadistas do grupo "Estado Islâmico", que controla grandes áreas no Iraque e na Síria.
Na quinta-feira, Marzieh Afhkham, porta-voz do ministro dos Negócios Estrangeiros, já havia colocado em dúvida a "sinceridade" dos princípios da coligação.
Na passada semana, o ministro dos Negócios Estrangeiros, Mohammad Javad Zarif, acusou os Estados Unidos de, anteriormente, ter apoiado os jihadistas e outros grupos rebeldes na Síria, muitos dos quais foram parar às fileiras do grupo Estado Islâmico.
O Irão tem apoiado o presidente sírio Bashar al-Assad desde que a revolta naquele país eclodiu em março de 2011.
O responsável iraniano não comentou o facto de a França ter organizado para segunda-feira uma conferência sobre o Iraque em que o Irão não foi convidado a participar.
O secretário de Estado norte-americano John Kerry afirmou sexta-feira que o seu país opôs-se à participação do Irão devido o seu envolvimento na Síria e em outros conflitos.

Kerry says Iran can help tackle ISIL threat.....US Secretary of State says there is role for nearly all countries in the fight against the self-declared jihadist group....
ReplyDeleteIran can play a role in confronting and destroying the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) group, US Secretary of State John Kerry has said.
Addressing a session of the UN Security Council on Iraq on Friday, Kerry said there was a role for nearly every country in the world to defeat what he described as a "militant cult masquerading as a religious movement".
"The coalition required to eliminate ISIL is not only, or even primarily, military in nature," Kerry said. "It must be comprehensive and include close collaboration across multiple lines of effort."
"There is a role for nearly every country in the world to play, including Iran."
Kerry’s comments came as Tehran and six top world powers launched a fresh effort on Friday at narrowing differences on what nuclear concessions Iran must agree to in exchange for full sanctions relief.
US officials told the Reuters news agency the basic dilemma was how to keep Iran from hardening its stance in the nuclear talks out of a belief, which officials say would be misguided, that Washington might make nuclear concessions in exchange for help against ISIL......................http://www.aljazeera.com/news/americas/2014/09/kerry-says-iran-can-help-tackle-isil-threat-201491923615283773.html
