Secretary General of Palestinian Islamic Jihad Movement meets with Iranian foreign minister

The Iranian foreign minister described the racist Zionist regime as the root-cause and the main source of insecurity and instability in the region.

Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian has held a meeting with Secretary General of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad Ziyad Nakhalah and his accompanying delegation, congratulating the recent major victory of the resistance fighters in the 5-day Gaza war and the key role the unity of resistance groups played in this regard.

Amirabdollahian described the issue of Palestine as a pivotal issue of the Muslim world and reiterated the support of the Islamic Republic of Iran for the Palestinian cause, the holy al-Quds and the legitimate resistance of the Palestinian nation against the Zionist occupiers.

The Iranian foreign minister described the racist Zionist regime as the root-cause and the main source of insecurity and instability in the region.

He called for coordinated and effective measures by the Islamic countries and governments to halt the inhumane crimes of the Zionists against the oppressed people of Palestine and in support of the Islamic sanctities in the holy al-Quds.

Elsewhere in his remarks, Amirabdollahian touched on the role late Iranian General Qassem Soleimani played in shoring up the Palestinian resistance, adding that strengthening the solidarity of Muslim nations, eliminating the threats posed by the regime to the Islamic Ummah and countering the US hegemony were top priorities in the viewpoints and sincere efforts of the general. 

He said, on Palestine, just as reiterated in the deep comments by the Islamic Revolution Leader, general Soleimani, in the true sense of the word, propped up the Palestinian resistance against the aggressive regime, which is armed to the teeth, and enjoys an all-out support by the US and the West.  

He added that the result and fruit of the efforts and sacrifices of the general is today’s belief among many regional governments and nations in the need to take the reins of the fate of regional security and stability in their own hands and pursue regional development away from meddling by foreigners.

Also during the meeting, Ziyad Nakhalah offered his assessment of the process of developments in Palestine and occupied territories and stressed that Palestinian resistance groups are in the best possible shape in terms of preparedness and unity of action against the Israeli regime and, with the absolute support of the Palestinian nation, can resist any act of aggression by the usurper Zionist regime and obtain major victories
