Tehran Dismisses Arab League’s Claim on Iranian Islands as Baseless and Unacceptable

The recent statements made during the Arab League summit in Baghdad regarding the three Iranian islands—Greater Tunb, Lesser Tunb, and Abu Musa—have sparked a strong response from Iranian officials. The Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baqaei has firmly dismissed these claims, reinforcing Iran’s stance on the territorial integrity of these islands.

In a statement issued on Monday, Baqaei reiterated that “the three Persian Gulf islands are an integral and eternal part of Iran.” He labeled the discussion of these islands at the Arab League summit as “unacceptable.”

Key points from Baqaei’s statement include:

  • Any claims regarding Iran’s islands contradict the fundamental principles of the United Nations Charter and international law.
  • Respect for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of nations is essential.
  • The Foreign Ministry urges the Arab League to recognize the historical and geographical realities of the Persian Gulf.
  • Focus should shift towards strengthening relations among regional countries instead of raising “baseless claims.”

Repeatedly, Iran has cautioned Arab nations and their political and economic alliances against making unverified claims about these islands. The Iranian government maintains that such assertions are illegitimate and do not alter Iran’s legal status or sovereignty over the islands.

In conclusion, Iran’s position remains steadfast, emphasizing the need for mutual respect and cooperation among neighboring countries in the region.
