Iran, Arab League discuss regional developments

 Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif and Arab League (AL) Secretary-General Nabil al-Arabi voiced concern over the ongoing bloodshed carried out by extremist groups in the region, and called on Muslim nations to grow more united against terrorism and extremism.
In a meeting in New York on Sunday, the two officials reviewed the latest developments in the Middle-East, the terrorist and extremist movements, and the issue of the international anti-ISIL Paris Conference.
"Everyone's assistance is needed to resolve the prevailing problems as the present day conditions call for dialogue, cooperation and accepting responsibility," said Zarif.
He announced Iran's will for cooperation and holding dialogue with the regional countries aimed at uprooting the present day threats.
"Unfortunately, the terrorists' activities against the Muslim nations are conducted in the name of Islam, which is why we all need to try to refrain from the continuation of this vastly expanding threat," Al-Arabi said for his part.
On Friday, Zarif voiced suspicion over the so-called coalition formed by the US to fight the ISIL terrorist group.
“We were not convinced that the United States government was serious (in anti-ISIL campaign)," the top Iranian diplomat reiterated.
