In Sorge

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is showing signs that he is worried by recent developments in Syria, where anti-government protests are threatening Bashar Assad’s grip on power.

Ahmadinejad accused the West on Monday of causing instability across the Middle East, and in Syria in particular, to bolster Israel’s standing, Iranian state television reported.

According to Reuters, the Iranian leader told reporters that the Western countries “want to save the Zionist regime (Israel) by interference in the region aimed at creating discord among the regional nations and governments.”
