Zarif: We stand with the Palestinian people and we are proud to pay the price for it.
“We stand with the Palestinian people and we are proud to pay the ransom,” said the foreign minister to the leaders of Palestinian groups based in Damascus.
The Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Mohammad Javad Zarif, continued his meetings in Syria with the leaders of Palestinian groups based in Damascus.
“We witnessed the new brutality of the Zionist regime, especially in Al-Aqsa Mosque, and we also tried to hand over the areas around Al-Aqsa Mosque,” he said in a statement to the leaders of Palestinian groups living in Damascus. At the same time, we witnessed the courage of Palestinian men and women in defending the Holy Mosque.
“The Islamic world is very proud of this bravery,” he said.
Zarif added: “It also showed that the process of normalization with the Zionist regime is against the people of Palestine and against the interests of the Islamic Ummah.”
“In recent days, with the cooperation of Turkey, Qatar, and other Islamic countries, we have tried to sensitize the international community on this issue,” he said. We hope to be able to make at least some movement in the UN through the General Assembly because there is no hope from the Security Council.
“We stand with the Palestinian people and we are proud to pay the price,” he said. Similarly, Syria is paying the price of standing by the resistance of the Palestinian people. Iran and Syria and other countries facing US anger are supporting Palestine.
He added “I hope that together we can strengthen the resistance and work for the rights of the Palestinian people to create a better day for the future.
The Foreign Minister of Iran also told reporters upon his arrival in Damascus: “We have very special circumstances and I was supposed to visit Syria on the eve of the Syrian elections and talk to our Syrian friends about this important event.” Unfortunately, the criminal acts of the Zionist regime, which have intensified since the International Day of Al-Quds and the unprecedented events that took place in Al-Aqsa Mosque and the occupied territories and the bombing of Gaza, have created very serious conditions in the region. It plays a vital role.
