The World Peace Council condemns the American crime of assassinating Soleimani and al-Muhandis

Prague, ST- The World Peace Council strongly condemned the US violation of the sovereignty of Iraq and its assassination of the commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, Qassem Soleimani, and the deputy commander  of the Iraqi Popular Mobilization Units, Abo Mahdi Al-Muhandis, and their companions.

In a statement, the council described this aggression as “a new escalation of the situation in the region by the United States, and the first escalation was when the US withdrew from the nuclear agreement with Iran.”

The statement called for the complete withdrawal of US forces from Syria, Iraq and other countries in the region and the closure of all US military bases, stressing the cancellation of all US sanctions imposed on the peoples of these countries.

In this context,  Deputy Speaker of the Czech Parliament, President of the Freedom and Democracy Party, Tomio Okamura  called  the Czech forces to withdraw  from Iraq, warning that Czechia could be involved in a war that contradicts its interests.

Okamura indicated that the Iraqi parliament adopted a resolution calling on the government to take all necessary measures to end the presence of foreign forces in Iraq, which necessitates the withdrawal of Czech soldiers from it.

Okamura described Soleimani’s assassination as “stupidity that amounts to crime,” noting that Soleimani had contributed significantly to defeating the “ISIS” terrorist organization.

In Slovakia, the President of the European Commission in the Slovak Parliament, Lubush Blaha, renewed his condemnation of the American crime of the assassination of Soleimani, stressing that this crime “means that the United States started an offensive war and destroyed peace in the world.”

He stressed that “the Americans are now behaving like criminals and they should no longer feel safe in the region because what they do is  stupid by all measures.”
