I've Been Thinking:
Iranian foreign minister Javid Zarif is in Syria. He arrived on the heels of Iran's Defense Minister Khatami.
Zarif met with Syrian President Assad in order to review international diplomatic responses to their assault on Idlib, one of the last strongholds of Syrian rebels fighting Assad.
The Syria leader said: "the fact that the West has resorted to threats and pressure on Tehran and Damascus attests to its failure to implement the plans it has proposed."
He continued: "the pressures exerted by some Western countries will not deter both countries from continuing to maintain their principles and securing the region."
Iran and Syria are in this for the long term.
