  • Support for Palestinian Resistance: Araghchi praised Algeria’s unwavering support for the Palestinian struggle for self-determination and freedom from Israeli occupation.
  • Condemnation of Trump’s Plan: He characterized Trump’s proposal to forcibly relocate Palestinians from Gaza as part of a broader colonial agenda aimed at erasing Palestinian identity.
  • Call for International Unity: The Iranian diplomat emphasized the urgent need for a consolidated response from the international community, particularly Islamic nations, against what he termed ‘the dangerous plot’ orchestrated by the U.S.
  • Efforts to Mobilize Support: Araghchi mentioned his recent discussions with various Islamic countries, including the Secretary General of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) and the Secretary General of the United Nations, to garner support against the ethnic cleansing occurring in Gaza.

In response, the Algerian Foreign Minister reaffirmed his country’s steadfast opposition to Trump’s proposal to expel Gazans from their ancestral lands. He also welcomed Iran’s initiative to convene an OIC meeting to assess the latest developments in occupied Palestine.

This conversation highlights a critical moment in international relations concerning the Palestinian issue, underscoring the importance of solidarity among nations in defending the rights of oppressed peoples.
