Tehran (TDI): The Islamic Republic of Iran strongly rejected the recent allegations made by the foreign ministers of the G7 members, describing them as baseless and irresponsible, according to a statement from Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmail Baqaei.
Baqaei pointed out that G7 countries, especially the United States, Canada, and three European countries, support Israel with money, artilleries, and political help. Furthermore, he blamed these countries for violence and genocide in the region and mentioned that peace can only happen if they stop being interventionist.
Yesterday, during the discussion at the sideline of the Munich Security Conference, the G7 countries condemned the destabilizing actions of Iran. They expressed their concerns about Iran’s rapid increase of its uranium enrichment and ballistic missiles range while also accused of supporting terrorist groups in the region.
Reaffirming Iran’s legitimate right and legal responsibility to defend its people, territorial integrity, and national sovereignty, Baqaei underscored that Iran’s military-defense capabilities are fully developed with international laws and norms.
