Iranian envoy to the United nation Gholamali Khoshroo said in Monday's session of the UN security council, foreign interference is the root of all problems in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA).

Iranian permanent ambassador to the United Nation Gholamali Khoshroo said on Monday's session of the security council, comprehensive review of the situation in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) requires first an examination of its root causes and maintaining peace and security in the region of MENA.

He said, foreign intervention, foreign interference and foreign occupation or a combination of them are the causes of conflicts and war in MENA over the past decades.

He added, even in a rare case wherein a conflict has internal root, it has been manipulated and escalated by the illegal interference of regional powers or the foreign countries from the outside of the region.

Khoshroo mentioned, Israel occupation regime undoubtedly is the core and the central of all conflicts in the MENA region.

He added, the new mass murder committed by Israel against unarmed Palestinian civilians is the latest in an old pattern followed by the Israel regime during the course of past seven decades.

The unlawful announcement on Al-Quds and the transfer of the US embassy to this city is another example of the policies that are exacerbating the problems in MENA region and the whole Islamic world.

 

He said, the current situation in Yemen is a very serious threat to regional and international security and another breeding ground for terrorist groups.
Foreign military interventions have never led to the resolution of any dispute, and there is no doubt that the ongoing war in Yemen is not an exception.
Saudi led Coalition war of aggression in Yemen and numerous war crimes committed by it directly endangers peace and security.

The international community and this Council should hold the Saudi regime accountable for these criminal acts, and intervene effectively to end the senseless military operation, including the ongoing attacks against Hudaydah, the lifeline of basic humanitarian aid to millions of needy Yemenis, establish a ceasefire, ensure the delivery of humanitarian and medical assistance to the people of Yemen without any discrimination, and restoring peace and stability in this country through Yemeni-Yemeni dialogue on national reconciliation without preconditions.

In Syrian Arab Republic, Since the beginning of the on-going tragedy, Iran has always called for a peaceful solution to the conflict, based on the respect for sovereignty and territorial integrity of Syria, as well as the right of the Syrian people to determine their own political future.
