Only way for Palestinians to gain own rights is resistance: Rouhani
Tehran (Basirat) :Iranian President Hassan Rouhani has described resistance against the Israeli regime as the only way for the Palestinian nation to obtain its own rights, stressing that all Muslims must support the Palestinians’ right of return and establishment of an independent Palestinian state with Jerusalem al-Quds as its capital.
In a meeting with Secretary General of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad resistance
movement Ziad al-Nakhala in Tehran on Tuesday evening, Rouhani said Iran has
been a staunch supporter of the Palestinian nation ever since the 1979
Revolution, led by late Imam Khomeini.
He then praised the Palestinian nation’s 70-year-long steadfastness in the face
of Zionists’ expropriation, injustice and occupation, stating that their
struggle should continue until the Tel Aviv regime acknowledges their rights.
"The Zionist regime (of Israel), thanks to support from the new rulers of the
White House, is seeking to assert control over the entire (Middle East) region;
and Palestine is a part of such a complex plot,” the Iranian president noted.
Nakhala, for his part, briefed the Iranian president on the latest developments
in the occupied Palestinian lands, and the capabilities of Palestinian
resistance groups.
"Undoubtedly, the Islamic Republic of Iran’s support and principled policies
have played a major role in thwarting attempts aimed at stripping the
Palestinian nation of their rights,” he pointed out.
Nakhala also highlighted that the Palestinian nation, irrespective of ongoing
pressures and threats, will continue its resistance against the Israeli regime
until all its rights are recognized.
