Iran Reiterates Support for Regional States’ Sovereignty against Terrorist, Rebel Groups

TEHRAN -Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Bahram Qassemi underlined that his country supports the regional countries’ national sovereignty against the terrorist groups and outlaws.

“Iran looks at the regional issues with a good-will view and it has shown in practice too its support for countries’ national sovereignty and it has not allowed them to be overthrown by the terrorist and rebel groups,” Qassemi said on Monday, Fars News reported.

He referred to the presence of a large number of foreign delegations in the swearing-in ceremony of President Hassan Rouhani on Saturday, and said because Iran’s policy is based on peace, talks, defending the oppressed, fighting against organized terrorism and efforts to establish peace and security in the world, such a high participation is natural.

In relevant remarks last month, Qassemi underlined the necessity for maintaining Iraq’s territorial integrity and national sovereignty, and voiced opposition to any plans to disintegrate the Arab country.

“Iran wants to see (maintenance of) Iraq’s territorial integrity and national sovereignty and an integrated, democratic and developed Iraq and considers any disintegration and separation among nations, ethnic groups and religions as a type of blatant and strategic mistake which will harm the Iraqi people and all ethnic groups and religions and will further destabilize Iraq and promote terrorism in the country,” he said.

Qassemi vowed that Iran will never change its policy of support for Iraq’s Central government and the country’s territorial integrity.

Also in July, Iranian President Hassan Rouhani renewed his country’s continued support for Iraq’s territorial integrity and national sovereignty.

“The Islamic Republic of Iran supports a stable, an integrated and united Iraq; any move undermining unity and integrity of Iraq will not be in favor of anybody, thus unacceptable,” President Rouhani said in a meeting with Head of the Islamic Supreme Council of Iraq (ISCI) Ammar al-Hakim in Tehran.
