TEHRAN- Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Nasser Kanaani has denounced the U.S. police crackdown on students expressing solidarity with the people of Gaza Strip.
During his weekly presser on Monday, Kanaani cited the numerous pro-Palestine demonstrations and sit-ins at American universities, pointing out that these events demonstrate the intensity of anti-Zionist sentiment as well as the global public’s vigilance regarding the Palestine issue.
They also highlight the extent of support for the Israeli regime’s genocide in Gaza, which has received backing from the U.S. and some European governments.
The spokesman stated that people who care about justice will not put up with governments endorsing the homicidal war of the Zionist system, and that the U.S. government cannot use strong measures to put an end to protestors.
He expressed alarm over the students’ actions and stressed that the Iranian foreign ministry will not tolerate the crackdown.
He added that the U.S. demonstrated that it adheres to a double standard when it comes to human rights by sending police officers to college campuses.
The spokesman went on to say that in order to meet legitimate public demands, the U.S. officials must allow students to voice their opinions. As a result, the Zionist regime’s supporters and other world leaders are expected to give this crucial issue significant attention.
"Iran adamant to establish regional stability, security”
Also, Kanaani said that Iran’s hosting of Iran Expo 2024 demonstrates Iran’s serious commitment to consolidating stability, security, and sustainable development in the region.
He also emphasized Iran’s role as a harbinger of friendship and brotherhood among regional countries, adding that Iran believes that these countries can achieve security, prosperity, and sustainable development by cooperating based on shared interests.
He said that Iran Expo 2024 presents a significant chance for communication between Iranian officials and those of the more than 22 participating nations.
He also stated that the show is a major accomplishment for the Iranian government and highlights Iran’s proactive involvement in security and political issues meant to stabilize the region and fend off threats to security.
According to him, the exhibition’s sizable foreign participation count reflects Iran’s dedication to promoting global collaboration.
Tehran-Riyadh relations
The official added that bilateral discussions and consultations in the political and economic spheres between Iran and Saudi Arabia are ongoing and that relations between the two nations are proceeding naturally.
Kanaani stated in his remarks that Saudi Arabia’s participation in Iran Expo 2024 demonstrates the Arab nation and Iran’s shared trade views.
Economic matters were on the table starting with the restoration of diplomatic relations between Tehran and Riyadh, the spokesperson continued.
He further predicted a bright future for Iran and Saudi Arabia as ambassadors in the respective countries pursue expansion of relations.
Active role of IRGC in uprooting terrorism
The European Parliament’s members would have been vulnerable to terrorist attacks within the building if the IRGC hadn’t been involved in the battle against multilateral terrorism, according to Kanaani.
He advised them to make the proper choice and have the appropriate perspective on the IRGC, stating that it is the largest counterterrorism force in the world.
Terror attack in Russia
He said that any terrorist acts and activities against Russian nationals or government buildings, or any other nation, are abhorred.
He said that Iran fights terrorism alongside its allies, including Russia.
Kanaani emphasized that terrorism poses a threat to all nations worldwide.
Although some nations utilize terrorism as a weapon to further their objectives, it is seen as a threat to all nations in the region and the world.
He also emphasized that fighting terrorism required a strong sense of unity.
Helmand water rights
We have fervently and at all levels requested Iran’s water rights from the Afghan side in the fulfillment of the pact between Iran and Afghanistan, Kanaani said.
He went on to say that around 112 million cubic meters of water had flown into Iranian territory.
U.S. embroilment in Gaza War
The spokesman stated that the U.S. is one of the countries pursuing the “normalization process” between regional nations and the Zionist regime.
This indicates Washington is not interested in mediating a ceasefire in Gaza because it could halt providing financial, political, and military support to Israel to help end the conflict; hence, the U.S. administration is unable to demonstrate its sincerity and competence in this regard.
Palestine Issue
The Iranian diplomat highlighted that the Palestinian issue is one of the most crucial regional and global issues, and that the war in Gaza requires an immediate ceasefire before reopening all crossings to allow humanitarian aid to reach the besieged area.
He also pointed out that the Israeli regime’s exchange of prisoners with the Palestinian resistance movement is another important issue.
Iran-Iraq deal
Iran’s demands from Iraq are fully clear, he said, noting that certain parts of the requests have been implemented and other parts are being pursued; however, Tehran expects Baghdad to completely implement the agreement, hoping for proper results in this regard.
When asked how Tehran and Baghdad planned to put the 2023 Iran-Iraq Security Treaty into effect, Kanaani said that the goal was to secure shared borders and satisfy Iranian requests for combating causes of instability both inside and outside of both nations.
Tehran wants Baghdad to fully implement the deal, expecting for appropriate outcomes in this respect.
He stated that Iran’s expectations from Iraq are clearly apparent, noting that some of the requests have been implemented and others are being pursued.
