Araghchi: International law not a tool for selective use

Pars Today - Iran's Foreign Minister protested the double standard of international law in a note on his personal page, writing: "International law is not a tool for selective use."

According to Pars Today, Seyed Abbas Araghchi, Iran's Foreign Minister, wrote on his personal page: "The United States supported Israel's blockade of Gaza and, citing 'security' claims, blocked the path of humanitarian aid; but at the same time, it condemns Iran for defending itself in the Strait of Hormuz."

He continued: "This is the same double standard."

Araghchi added: "Israel's crimes are considered acceptable, while Iran's defense against aggressors is condemned. International law is not a tool for selective and expedient use."
