"My presence here proves that I believe Iran can play a positive
role and should therefore be a part of the solution in the Syrian crisis,"
Annan said at a news conference with Iranian Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi.
Salehi has consistently opposed foreign intervention in the crisis, arguing that it is for the Syrian people to chart their future during the scheduled presidential election in 2014.
“We should not worsen the crisis,” said Salehi. “God forbid, one wrong measure, one wrong decision can have catastrophic consequences for the region and the whole world.” (IRNA, 10 July)

Iran's or should I say Islamic regimes power is declining in Syria.
Annan has only gone to Iran to tell them the game is up and the Syrian people will be free from Assad regime very soon.
