Iranian companies will participate in the reconstruction of war-torn Syria, Iran's Vice-President Eshaq Jahangiri said Monday.
"Iranian private sector companies are willing to participate in the reconstruction of Syria," Jahangiri said during a meeting with Syria's Assad regime's Prime Minister Imad Khamis.
Khamis is visiting Iran for talks with Iranian officials following the killing of top general Qasem Soleimani in a U.S. drone airstrike in Iraq earlier this month.
Iran retaliated with the firing of a dozen ballistic missiles on Iraqi airbases housing U.S. troops.
Iran and Lebanese group Hezbollah are strong allies of Syria’s Bashar al-Assad regime, the forces of which have been fighting opposition groups in a deadly civil war since 2011.
