WANA (Jul 25) – Iran’s Foreign Ministry Spokesman, Esmaeil Baghaei, has forcefully rejected claims of human rights concerns raised by European officials, describing the stance of the European Union as outright hypocrisy.

 

In response to recent statements made by Kaja Kallas, the EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Baghaei remarked: “Kaja Kallas speaks of the European Union’s ‘human rights concerns’ regarding Iran.”

 

He added, “How can a professed commitment to human rights be so easily reconciled with providing logistical and technical support for lethal aggressions against the Iranian people — aggressions that deliberately target civilians and critical national infrastructure?”

 

“All while refusing to condemn even the most blatant war crimes, and offering not a single word of sympathy for Iranian children slaughtered by American-Israeli bombs and missiles enabled by the EU’s own ‘logistical and technical support.’ This is not merely a loss of credibility. It is the banality of evil — and the purest form of hypocrisy,” Baghaei concluded.
