Tehran reacts to final statement of EU-PGCC meeting

TEHRAN, Oct. 11 (MNA) – Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Nasser Kan'ani rejected and condemned the inclusion of some baseless content in the final statement of the EU-PGCC Joint Council and Ministerial meeting.

Kan'ani made the reaction on Wednesday, once again emphasizing that the principled and permanent position of Tehran is that the three Persian Gulf islands of Abu Musa, the Greater, and Lesser Tunbs are eternal parts of Iran.

Referring to the destructive record of the intervention of some European countries in the Persian Gulf region during different periods and the sale of billions of dollars of weapons and munitions to the region in order to continue regional tensions and gain commercial benefits, he considered the development process of the recent months in the region as promising and in line with the interests of all the countries of the region.

He also considered the continuation of diplomacy and dialogue as the best way to strengthen cooperation in the direction of common interests and strengthen the stability and security of this region.

Recalling the security-building role of the Islamic Republic of Iran in the real fight against terrorism, as well as strengthening and consolidating maritime security, he considered sustainable regional security to be dependent on the strengthening of bilateral and multilateral cooperation of the countries of the region, regardless of inappropriate interventions of extra-regional forces.

Rejecting some contents of the statement about Irans' nuclear activities and defense capability, he said that the Islamic Republic of Iran has always adhered to international laws and obligations and to its constructive cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency based on the Safeguard Agreement.
