Iran's Acting Foreign Minister Ali Bagheri Kani on Saturday issued a resolute stance as he affirmed Iran's commitment to using its power to deter Israel in times of regional destabilization.
Tehran -ISNA- In an interview with CNN Turk, Bagheri Kani said: "The Zionists' targeting and attacking on the Iranian embassy in Damascus forced Iran to effectively and wisely use its power components to protect the security and stability of the region."
His remarks come in light of recent Israeli aggressions, particularly the attack on the Iranian consulate in Damascus earlier this year.
"I think the Zionists know very well that when the stability and security of the region is threatened and they try to destabilize the region, Iran will effectively and wisely use its might to contain them and put them in their place," Bagheri Kani added.
Regarding the escalating tensions between Russia and the West, Bagheri Kani advocated for dialogue as the preferred approach to resolve conflicts.
He rejected the notion of military confrontation, stating, "We do not see a war as a solution to the problem. Our advice to both sides is to use dialogue in a political context."
Bagheri Kani also urged Islamic countries to halt all political and economic cooperation with Israel, instead advocating for a comprehensive boycott of Israeli imports and exports.
Such measures would be the most effective means for Islamic nations to demonstrate solidarity with the Palestinian cause and oppose Israeli policies.
Addressing concerns about Iran's nuclear program, Bagheri Kani reiterated that Iran conducts its nuclear activities in strict accordance with the International Atomic Energy Agency's requirements and international treaties.
He dismissed allegations of nuclear escalation, asserting, "Iran's nuclear program and activities are fully legal and under the control of the International Atomic Energy Agency," Bagheri Kani said in an interview with the CNN Turk broadcaster.
