DUSHANBE (Dispatches) -- Iran’s Parliament Speaker Muhammad Bagher Ghalibaf said Friday the Israeli assassinations of senior resistance figures and its crimes across West Asia will not help the regime cover up its failures.
“The Zionist regime must know that it can’t compensate for its strategic failures with airstrikes and assassination operations,” he told an international conference here to mark the 30th anniversary of the adoption of the constitution of Tajikistan.
Those crimes are, he said, are instead accelerating the pace of the regime’s destruction.
Ghalibaf said the acts of terrorism committed by Israel over the past year are “a clear sign of the regime’s inability to confront the Palestinian and Lebanese nations.”
Calling for a ceasefire in Gaza and Lebanon, Ghalibaf said parliament speakers around the world “have a duty” to react to Israel’s brutal killing of women and children and support their call for freedom and justice.
He touched on the common history and culture between Iran and Tajikistan, expressing Tehran’s readiness to strengthen ties with Dushanbe.
Expanded ties will not only serve the interests of the two nations, but they will also contribute to the region’s stability and prosperity, he added.
Ghalibaf also introduced a proposal for a convergence agreement between the regional countries’ parliaments.
He touched on unilateralism and the violation of the political sovereignty of countries, terrorism, extremism and climate change, saying bilateral, multilateral and regional cooperation, “and in one word, effective collective action” is required to confront those challenges and threats that the region and the world currently face.
Ghalibaf said the signing of “the parliamentary convergence agreement for peace and sustainable development” by the parliaments of the regional countries will pave the way for negotiations aimed at resolving misunderstandings and advancing dialogue.
