Iran Accuses Israeli Regime of Threatening Regional Stability and Peace
In a recent statement, Iran’s Ambassador to the UN, Amir Saeid Iravani, declared that Israel is the principal threat to international peace and security. He emphasized that the Israeli government makes baseless allegations against Iran to obscure its own “destructive activities.”
In a letter addressed to the UN Security Council president, Iravani responded to remarks made by Israeli President Isaac Herzog, who labeled Iran as a “threat” to global stability, particularly for the United States and Israel. Here are the key points from Iravani’s remarks:
- Iravani condemned Herzog’s “unfounded and provocative accusations” during the UN General Assembly’s special session.
- He firmly rejected these claims, stating they serve only to distract from the atrocities committed by the Israeli regime against the Palestinian people in Gaza.
- The Iranian ambassador pointed out that such accusations are part of a systematic effort to mask Israel’s violations of international law in the region.
- He emphasized that Israel poses a persistent threat not only to Iran but also to global peace and security.
- Iravani highlighted the ongoing aggression of Zionism against Lebanon and Syria, which he described as clear violations of the UN Charter.
- These unlawful actions further destabilize an already fragile regional environment.
Iravani urged the global community to remain vigilant against Israel’s attempts to deflect attention from its crimes and destructive behaviors that undermine peace and stability. He called for the international community, particularly the UN Security Council, to hold this “apartheid regime” accountable for its actions and to take decisive measures to ensure compliance with international law.
In conclusion, Iran’s UN ambassador reinforced the importance of justice and accountability in addressing the threats posed by Israel to both regional and global peace.
