“The US Congress is not authorised to green-light American military strikes against Syria as any such action would be in violation of international law, Iran’s Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said Sunday. ‘Mr Obama cannot interpret and construe international law for his own (benefit),’ Zarif told reporters after a late afternoon cabinet meeting, the ISNA news agency reported. ‘Congress cannot authorise strikes (against Syria) and that attack would be in violation of international law,’ he said, explaining that ‘only the UN Security Council — under special conditions — can issue authorization’ for the use of force to restore international peace.”
