Tunisia’s president has called Iran the only source of hope in confronting Zionist Entity and hailed the Islamic Republic’s sacrifices in the war against terrorists in Syria.
BejiCaidEssebsi made the remarks in a meeting with visiting Iranian Minister of Culture and Islamic Guidance Reza SalehiAmiri at the presidential Carthage Palace in Tunis.
“The Zionist regime [of Israel] is the Islamic Republic’s only enemy in the region. Therefore, we hope that all Muslim and Arab countries would stand by Iran,” Essebi said.
Essebi called Iran a great country with a rich cultural heritage, saying it has a role to play in the Middle East despite efforts by certain sides to push the Islamic Republic into a Shia-Sunni strife.
“Unfortunately, the Zionist regime and its sponsors were trying to isolate Iran, but, by God’s grace, the Islamic Republic succeeded to return to the political scene of the region,” he added.
Since the victory of the Islamic Revolution in 1979, Tehran has invariably stood by the Palestinian people against Israel which considers Iran as the biggest existential threat.
