Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said Sunday that the unwavering policy of the Islamic republic is "supporting peace" for the Syrian people.

"None of the outsiders could prescribe remedies for the nation," Khamenei said in a meeting with visiting Ghanaian President John Dramani Mahama.

"Neither the Americans nor the Europeans could decide for the Syrian people ... The Syrians themselves should decide on their future," Khamenei added.

The Iranian leader also urged for further cooperation between Iran and Ghana. "Iran and Ghana enjoy good and abundant capacities and we hope that this trip (of the Ghanaian president to Iran) will lead to the expansion of ties."

Leading a high-ranking political and economic delegation, Mahama began his official visit to Iran on Sunday at the invitation of Iranian President Hassan Rouhani.
