Iran’s Foreign Minister has condemned the joint U-S-Israeli plan for the forced displacement of Gazans and ethnic cleansing in the besieged territory. Abbas Araghchi said all Muslim nations must take a unified stance to thwart this plot.
Araghchi was speaking in a phone call with Secretary-General of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation Hussein Ibrahim Taha. Iran's top diplomat called for an extraordinary meeting of the organization to take decisive and effective action in defense of Palestinians’ rights. He highlighted the grave responsibility of Muslim nations to support the rights of the oppressed Palestinians, particularly their right to self-determination. The O-I-C chief, for his part, rejected forced displacement of Gazans as completely unacceptable, while welcoming Iran’s proposal for an extraordinary O-I-C meeting. Araghchi also discussed the current situation of Gaza in separate phone calls with his Tunisian, Egyptian, Turkish and Pakistani counterparts.
