US former Secretary of State Colin Powell on Wednesday reiterated support to open dialogue between the US with each of Syria and Iran on all possible levels in order to find a way out of the situation in Iraq and the region.
"We should talk with Syria and Iran… Syria is part of the solution.. I visited Syria twice when I was a Secretary of State because she is part of the solution," Powell said at the annually "Forum of Leaders" in Dubai.
Powell's call coincides with the call of former US Secretary of State James Baker for holding direct talks with Syria and Iran.
