WANA (Aug 21) – In a recent event marking the International Day of Remembrance for Victims of Terrorism, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Nasser Kanaani condemned the United States for its support of Israeli state terrorism.

 

Kanaani stated that this harsh and regrettable reality is evident to people worldwide, from the suffering populations of West Asia and North Africa to students in Europe and the Americas, asserting that the U.S. openly supports the state terrorism perpetrated by Israel.

 

Kanaani emphasized that true peace can only be achieved through justice and accountability for criminals and oppressors. He lamented that organized terrorism is rooted in the systematic support from certain regimes and false human rights advocates.

 

He criticized the superficiality of talking about respecting terrorism victims while every hour, four Palestinian children are killed by the Israeli army and about forty Palestinian children lose their mothers daily due to these attacks. He condemned the lack of international action and the Western countries’ negligence in addressing this unprecedented atrocity against humanity.

 

Kanaani also accused some Western countries, particularly the U.S., of claiming to fight terrorism while creating and fully supporting the most dangerous terrorist entity in the world—Israel.

 

On this International Day of Remembrance, Kanaani called on the global community and international organizations to take immediate and effective action to halt the genocide, prosecute the perpetrators and supporters, assist the Palestinian people and rebuild Gaza.

 

He reiterated Iran’s commitment to standing alongside all terrorism victims and genuine fighters against terrorism, drawing on its significant experience as a nation that has consistently faced political and economic terrorism while advocating for peace.

 

The spokesperson assured that the Iranian government, including its judiciary and diplomatic bodies, will utilize all available national and international political, legal, and judicial resources to uphold the rights of the Iranian people, secure justice for terrorism victims and their families, and ensure accountability for terrorists and their supporters.
