Iran's Deputy FM for Arab and African Affairs Hossein Amir Abdollahian warned on Wednesday night against any meetings outside the provisions of the recent agreement reached in Vienna on the crisis in Syria.

Iran Warns against Talks Violating Vienna AgreementAbdollahian said that any "sideline talks" on the Syrian crisis in Saudi Arabia or Jordan constitute a violation of the Vienna agreement.
He further noted that such moves will only ruin the political attempts meant to solve the Syrian conflict.

The Iranian official further stressed the need to abstain from hasty measures on Syria, stating that Vienna negotiations present an opportunity to combat terrorism and pursue a political process for the Syrian crisis.

He also pointed out that the fate of Syria should be decided by Syrians themselves, adding that the fight against terrorism needs a strong resolve on the part of all world states.

Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia issued invitations to 65 Syrian opposition figures to attend a conference in Riyadh next week. No date has yet been set for the Riyadh meeting, but unnamed sources say it could take place next week.

Relatively, the so-called Syrian National Coalition has reportedly accepted an invitation to join the talks.

It is worth mentioning that the second round of the talks on Syria was held in Vienna, on November 14. Around 20 countries and international bodies were in attendance at the Syria talks.

Earlier on October 30, the first round witnessed participants, including the United States, Russia and Iran, agreeing to push forward a peace plan for Syria that would include a ceasefire.
