TEHRAN, Oct. 3-- None of the existing conflicts in the Middle East has a military solution, Iran's Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said on Tuesday. Zarif made the remarks in a meeting with Emir of Qatar Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani in Doha on Tuesday, Tasnim news agency reported. The regional states should work together towards finding political solutions and give priority to "regional initiatives" for peace, Zarif was quoted as saying by the report.
