Iran slams Qatar over Syria rebel 'embassy'
A top diplomat on Friday condemned the move by the Gulf state of Qatar to let Syria's opposition open an "embassy" in Doha, calling the decision "hasty and irrational," Iran's official IRNA news agency reported.
"Qatar's theatrical act in giving the Syrian embassy to a group which is unelected is both hasty and irrational," the deputy foreign minister in charge of Arab and African affairs, Hossein Amir Abdollahian, was quoted as saying. (AFP)
