WANA (Nov 15) – Iran’s Foreign Ministry has dismissed the latest remarks by the head of Canada’s domestic intelligence agency, describing the allegations against the Islamic Republic as “entirely unfounded and fabricated,” and aimed at deflecting attention from Canada’s role in current regional dynamics.

 

Citing the Government Information Center, Zahra Ershadi, Assistant to the Foreign Minister and Director-General for the Americas, firmly rejected the accusations and stated that “the claims raised by Canada’s security agency lack any credibility and are merely intended to cover up the Canadian government’s overt political support for the Israeli regime.”

 

Ershadi added that Ottawa’s continued backing of Israel amounts to an effort to divert attention from “ongoing violations of international law and the crimes being committed by the Israeli regime in West Asia.”

 

She also criticized the Canadian government for “irresponsible and unjustified” restrictions on consular services for Iranian nationals in Canada, urging Ottawa to rethink its current approach toward Tehran.
