BAKU, Azerbaijan, August 30. Iran is calling on
the leaders of Muslim countries, particularly the leaders of the
states of West Asia and the countries located around the Persian
Gulf, to unite.
Iran’s Supreme Leader, Seyyed Mojtaba Khamenei, said this today,
August 30, in a message marking Unity Week in Iran.
“The solution to the problems of Muslims is unity, friendship
and cooperation for the sake of goodness,” he said.
Iran’s Supreme Leader called on the countries of West Asia and
the states located around the Persian Gulf to recognize their
enemies and confront them.
“The United States and Israel do not want friendship and unity
among Muslim countries. The United States and Israel are opposed
not only to Iran, but also to the peoples of West Asia and North
Africa. It has not even been forgotten that they use disrespectful
terms when referring to the leaders of some Muslim countries,” he
said.
Khamenei noted that unity among Muslims in the fields of
science, security and prosperity, as well as cooperation on various
issues, would create conditions for the development of Muslim
countries.
Iran’s Supreme Leader called on Iranian citizens not to take
actions that could also lead to disagreements and misunderstandings
among Iranians themselves.
On February 28, Iran’s former Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Seyyed
Ali Khamenei, was killed as a result of US and Israeli aerial
military strikes against Iran. His son, Seyyed Mojtaba Khamenei,
was appointed to replace Ali Khamenei by a decision of the Assembly
of Experts.
