Warning of enemy plots, Iran FM announces upcoming visit to Pakistan

The Iranian foreign minister has warned against enemies' attempts to use terrorism as a tool against the country’s good neighborliness policy, saying he will soon visit Pakistan to resolve the recent issues.

“Today, the enemies are seeking to target the good neighborliness policy of the Islamic Republic of Iran through the tool of terrorism,” Hossein Amir-Abdollahian said at the 7th conference on multilateralism in the history of Iran's foreign relations in Tehran on Sunday.

“With a special focus on the good neighborliness policy, we have seen and defined security at the heart of the good neighborliness policy. We will never allow the enemies to target the friendship, peace and security of the region.”

He further said that over the past days, there have been terrorist moves in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq and areas in Pakistan's Balochistan province.

Iran, he added, held constructive talks with Pakistani and Iraqi officials in a bid to protect the security of the country and its borders as well as that of the region.

The discussions focused on a joint understanding and political solutions to what happened in Pakistan's Balochistan and Iraq's Kurdistan, Amir-Abdollahian noted.

The top Iranian diplomat also said that he will soon travel to Pakistan and Secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council (SNSC) Ali Akbar Ahmadian will visit Iraq.

Earlier this month, Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) launched missile strikes on an Israeli spy base in the Iraqi Kurdistan Region.

The elite military force also carried out simultaneous drone and missile attacks on two bases belonging to the Jaish ul-Adl terrorist group in Pakistan.

Gaza crisis ‘benchmark’ of humanitarian slogans

Also in his remarks, Amir-Abdollahian described the crisis in the Gaza Strip as the “benchmark” of egalitarian and humanitarian slogans in the current century.

“For about four months, massive war crimes have been going on against the people of Gaza by the Israeli regime. A collection of murders, massacres, forced displacement and genocide is also before the eyes of the world,” he said.

“Every freedom-seeking person should ask himself and the leaders of the international community what is the achievement of international organizations in solving the Palestinian crisis. Did multilateralism, joint view and global action help mankind?”

Israel waged a genocidal war on Gaza following a historic operation by the Hamas resistance group against the occupying entity in retaliation for its intensified atrocities against the Palestinian people.

However, 114 days into the aggression, the international community has failed to put an end to the Israeli carnage in besieged Gaza.

So far, the Tel Aviv regime has killed at least 26,422 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and injuring 65,087 others.
