Lebanese Minister of Foreign Affairs and Emigrants Adnan Mansour praised here on Thursday, Iran's six-point plan for resolution of Syrian crisis.

He made the remarks in a meeting with the Iran's ambassador to Lebanon, Qazanfar Roknabadi. Iranian IRNA state news agency informs about this. 

"Iran's six-point plan for resolution of Syrian crisis is very well-balanced and is an important step forward."

Roknabadi met with Lebanon's FM to convey Iranian Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi's felicitation to his counterpart on the occasion of the birth anniversary of Jesus Christ .

During the meeting, the two officials reviewed bilateral ties as well as latest regional and international developments.

Iranian officials have recently called on political leaders and religious figures in the region to support Tehran's six-point plan to settle the crisis in Syria.

Iran's proposed plan calls for an immediate end to violence and a start of the national dialogue. The third step is to create a reconciliation government and provide humanitarian aid to the people of Syria. The next step is releasing prisoners who have not committed a crime against Syrians. And the final point is to allow media's full access to Syria.

Tehran has recently doubled its efforts to settle the problems in Syria which has been experiencing unrests since March 2011 with organized attacks by well-armed gangs against Syrian security forces and border guards.

The Islamic Republic of Iran is in favor of negotiations between the Syrian government and opposition groups to create stability in the Middle Eastern country.
