Iran's permanent ambassador to the United Nations Amir Saied Iravani says the United States (US) is responsible for all crimes that the Israeli regime is committing against Palestinians in the besieged Gaza Strip.
He made the comment as he was addressing a Monday session of the UN Security Council.
Iran's ambassador severely criticized the United States over its unbridled support for the Israeli regime’s genocidal war on the Gaza Strip, reports Press TV.
“The US … is responsible for all crimes of the Israeli regime, as it cannot commit any of such savage crimes in Gaza without the consent, order, and all-out political, financial, and military support of, and collaboration with, the United States,” he said.
Amir Saied Iravani also slammed Washington for blocking measures taken by the UN Security Council to bring about a ceasefire in the Palestinians territory by vetoing all related resolutions.
“The United States [has] obstructed the Security Council's commitment to fulfill its [UN] Charter obligations in halting the Israeli war machine against the people of Gaza. One clear example is their use of veto here in this chamber that [has] prevented a ceasefire in Gaza despite the global appeal from the international community,” he added.
