Iran to do its best to stop ratification of US resolution against Palestine’s Islamic resistance

TEHRAN, Dec. 03 (MNA) – Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif and Ismail Haniyeh, the head of Hamas Political Bureau, held a phone conversation on Monday on the latest developments of Palestine.

During the Monday call, Haniyeh referred to the US attempts to introduce a draft resolution at the United Nations General Assembly to condemn the Palestinian resistance movement, and called on the Islamic Republic of Iran to express its opposition to the move.

For his part, the Iranian top diplomat underlined Tehran’s support for the rights of the Palestinians.

He also expressed regret that the policies adopted by certain regional states have emboldened the US to not only violate the international rights by moving its embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem al-Quds, but also to introduce a draft resolution against Palestine’s Islamic resistance at the United Nations General Assembly.

Zarif assured Haniyeh that the Islamic Republic will do its best to unite other Islamic and progressive states at the General Assembly to prevent the ratification of the US-drafted resolution, which stands in contradiction with the UN Charter.
