Iran criticizes Arab League for working with western governments
Iran on Tuesday upbraided the Arab League for setting precedent
against international norms by inviting Syrian opposition leader to
Summit of Arab Leaders underway in Qatar, IRNA news agency
reported.
Deputy Foreign Minister for Arab and African Affairs Hossein
Amir-Abdollahian criticized hasty measures taken by certain
countries by giving the Syrian government's seat at the Arab League
to unauthorized people, saying the Arab League set a precedent
against international norms.
He criticized the Arab League for working in harmony with the
western governments to serve their goals in the Middle East.
Amir-Abdollahian highlighted inaction of the Arab leaders toward
the plight of Palestinian people by the occupying regime of Tel
Aviv and said that if the Arab Leaders were wary of human rights
violations, why they kept silent toward bloodshed of Palestinians
in the past several decades.
The action was interpreted as the end of the role of Arab League in
the region, he noted.
'It would be better if the Arab Leaders drew attention to defending
oppressed people of Palestine vis-a-vis the occupying regime of Tel
Aviv.', he added.
