Tehran has become diplomacy capital in region: Spox
Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesman said that Tehran would host important visits by leaders of regional states, as the city has become the capital of diplomacy in the region.
Speaking in his first press conference on Wednesday in his capacity as the spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Naser Kanani said that the diplomacy apparatus of the Islamic Republic of Iran has focused on strengthening neighborliness policy and relations with independent countries to improve the Iranian people’s livelihood and neutralize sanctions.
Kanani said that United States President Joe Biden has claimed in his op-ed published by The Washington Post that his trip was aimed partly to help the Middle East to establish peace, while a glance at US foreign policy shows that this is not consistent with the current American policies.
The US government cannot shift the blame by a single memo and they should know that the violent policy in the region and supporting such a policy would draw a reaction, the spokesman said.
The Zionist regime is fake in nature and the US obeys the regime, he noted, adding that the US presence in the region, including in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Syria, was illegal and has caused much damage to the people.
US government and its president should revise their foreign policy and change their behavior and stop supporting the Zionist regime, which is the main cause of insecurity in the region.
On the situation of imprisoned Iranian citizen Assadollah Assadi in Belgium, he underlined that Tehran was negotiating with Brussels to ensure the citizen’s release.
