Foreign Ministry refutes Morocco’s allegations as baseless

Tehran, March 7, IRNA - Foreign Ministry issued a statement on Saturday to strongly refute the "baseless allegations" made by Morocco on Iran’s alleged interference in the country’s internal affairs.

In the statement, the Iranian Foreign Ministry expressed astonishment at the baseless accusations levelled by Morocco.

Regretfully, simultaneous with the 4th International Conference for Support of Palestine, the Model of Resistance, and Gaza, the Victim of War Crimes held in Tehran with participation of parliamentarians and officials from Islamic and Arab countries in Tehran, Morocco issued a statement to announce its severence of diplomatic ties with the Islamic Republic of Iran, said the statement.

Iran believes that under the current sensitive situation when Islamic nations are in dire need of unity and solidarity, the priority should be given to backing the Palestinian people and the recent move would harm unity of the Muslim world, said the statement.

The statement underlines that these allegations made by Morocco on Iran’s alleged interference in its internal affairs are totally baseless.

The Islamic Republic of Iran in the past 30 years has always tried to promote unity among Islamic nations and avoided making any rift and discord among themselves, said the statement.

Iran believes that ties between countries is a two way road and all should be vigilant towards plots being hatched by the enemies of Islam mainly the Zionists who have been humiliated by recent victories of people in Gaza, said the statement./end
