The Islamic republic would spare no effort aimed at the restoration of peace and security in the Arab state, he was quoted as saying.

Salehi also said Iran would never allow "foreign prescription" for the Syrian issue.

Syria has been in unrest for over 21 months, leaving hundreds of thousands dead and injured.
