DAVOS, Switzerland (AP) — Iran’s foreign minister called Friday for foreign fighters to leave Syria so that its people can decide their future themselves.

Speaking on a panel discussion about the Middle East at the World Economic Forum, Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said Iran also wants to see an end to foreign support for opponents of President Bashar Assad’s government and recognition by all sides that there can be no military solution to the conflict. He said Tehran hoped for a negotiated settlement.
