Why it matters:
While the World Parliament Speakers' Conference, held in Geneva, addresses the issue of peace and justice in the world, the Iranian Parliament Speaker's remarks at the summit directly emphasize the weakening of the ideals of peace and justice in today's world.
The big picture:
Israeli regime, backed by the U.S., is waging war on several countries in the West Asian region, including Gaza of Palestine, and Iran. The Israeli regime is disturbing the region, and the international bodies fail to stop it. Israel has blockaded Gaza and does not allow humanitarian aid to enter the Strip. People, including children, are dying from starvation in Gaza.
What he's saying:
Qalibaf: "We have gathered here in Geneva to discuss the issues of peace and justice, which are being systematically and continuously undermined, and the credibility of international institutions that is declining."
"The Islamic Republic of Iran has recently been the target of blatant aggression by the Zionist regime, an attack that was carried out with the support and accompaniment of the United States."
Zoom in:
Approximately 1,100 Iranian citizens, including 14 prominent scientists and dozens of women and children, were killed in Israeli attacks on Iran, with thousands more injured.
