Iran Dismisses Unfounded Allegations from U.K. Officials: A Firm Rebuttal

Foreign Ministry Slams U.S. President’s ‘Divisive and Deceptive’ Comments on Iran

The Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs has issued a strong condemnation of the recent statements made by U.S. President Donald Trump regarding Iran. These remarks have been characterized as false, divisive, and misleading, reflecting ongoing tensions in the region.

In a statement released on Wednesday, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs expressed its disapproval of Trump’s comments made on Tuesday, May 13, 2025. The ministry highlighted several key points:

  • Proxy Actions by the Zionist Regime: The ministry stated, “At a time when the Zionist regime, acting as a proxy for the U.S.A., is perpetrating the most horrific colonial genocide in the occupied Palestinian territories; has militarily occupied territories belonging to two other Arab and Muslim countries; and repeatedly violates the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Lebanon, Syria, and Yemen through acts of terrorism and war crimes against these nations, the U.S. president shamelessly blames Iran for the destruction of these countries.”
  • Distortion of Truth: It further emphasized, “This distortion of truth, which is rooted in a blatant inversion of the existing regional realities, is intended to divert attention from the genocide in Gaza and other atrocities by the Zionist regime in Lebanon, Syria, and Yemen.”
  • U.S. Policies: The ministry pointed out, “This is yet another indication of the hypocritical and insulting approach of U.S. policymakers toward the regional nations and shows the U.S. officials’ persistent efforts to shield the Zionist regime against accountability for its crimes against the regional nations.”
  • Impact on Iranian Unity: “The deceptive and insulting remarks of the U.S. president will by no means undermine the national solidarity of Iranians, both inside and outside the country,” the ministry noted.

Additionally, the Ministry highlighted the historical context of U.S.-Iran relations, stating, “Such comments can never alter the reality that successive U.S. administrations, over the past seven decades, have spared no veil in their efforts to hinder Iran’s progress and development.” They also referenced the severe sanctions imposed on Iran, which they claimed violate the human rights of Iranian citizens.

The statement further reiterated the ongoing humanitarian crisis in the region: “The people of the region and the world will never forget the fact that even as the U.S. president visits the region and delivers his divisive and deceptive remarks, Palestinian women and children in Gaza and the West Bank are being torn into pieces with American-supplied weapons.”

In conclusion, the Ministry asserted, “Undoubtedly, the divisive statements of the U.S. president are aimed at sowing discord between Iran and its Arab neighbors and at concealing the direct role of the U.S. in the crimes of the Zionist regime.” They reaffirmed the Islamic Republic of Iran’s commitment to maintaining strong relationships with its regional partners despite external pressures.
