Araghchi: By resisting bullying, let's show such practices belong in dustbin of history

Pars Today — Iran's Minister of Foreign Affairs has said that resisting American bullying is not an unfamiliar battle. Many of us are facing different forms of this same despicable pressure and coercion. Now is the time to work together to make it clear that such practices belong in the dustbin of history.

According to Pars Today, citing IRNA, "Seyyed Abbas Araghchi," Iran's Minister of Foreign Affairs, stated on Thursday, May 14 (24 Ordibehesht) at the BRICS Foreign Ministers' Meeting in New Delhi, India, noting that today our nations are closer to one another than ever before, emphasizing that we cannot ignore the common and dangerous threat that we all face.

Araghchi stated thta as you have all witnessed, Iran has been the target of brutal and illegal aggression by the United States and Israel twice in less than a year. The attacks against the Iranian people have been justified by false claims that contradict the informed assessments of the International Atomic Energy Agency and even the estimates of the US intelligence agencies themselves.

Iran's Foreign Minister stressed: The truth is that Iran, like many independent nations, has been a victim of illegal expansionism and warmongering. These are ugly phenomena that have no place in today's world. Those who seek reckless adventures may think these actions serve their geopolitical interests; but as nations and governments around the world have now realized, regional instability is a lose-lose situation for all parties, including the aggressors themselves.

Araghchi said: Iran calls on BRICS member states and all responsible members of the international community to explicitly condemn the violations of international law by the United States and Israel, including their illegal aggression against Iran; to prevent the politicization of international institutions; and to take practical measures to stop warmongering and end the impunity of violators of the UN Charter.
