Minister of Foreign Affairs Mohammad Javad Zarif dispatched separate letters to the Secretary-General of the United Nations, Secretary-General of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation and the Foreign Ministers of a number of UN member states today.
In his letters, he referred to the “unfortunate developments between Iran and Saudi Arabia” in recent days.
Zarif said that there are indications that some in Saudi Arabia are on a mission to drag the entire region to conflict; fearing that removal of the smokescreen of the manufactured Iranian nuclear threat would expose the real global threat posed by extremists and their sponsors.
The Iranian foreign minister recalled that those involved in extremist carnage and most members of Al-Qaeda, the Taliban, ISIS and Al-Nusra Front being either Saudi nationals, or otherwise brainwashed by petro-financed demagogues, who have promoted an anti-Islamic message of hatred, exclusion and sectarianism across the globe for decades.
