Ahmadinejad Praises Syria for Handling of Uprising
(Reuters) Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad praised the Syrian leadership's handling of a year-long uprising in which thousands have died, Iranian media reported on Tuesday. "I am very happy that Syrian officials are managing the situation well...I hope the situation in Syria improves day after day," Ahmadinejad told Syrian President Assad's special envoy, Faisal Meqdad. "By chanting false slogans of defending people's freedom, the Americans want to take control of Syria, Lebanon, Iran and other countries and we should be aware and stand firm against their plots," said Ahmadinejad.
