Iran has hit out at Germany and France for supporting Israel’s blatant aggression against the country and distorting facts about Iran’s peaceful nuclear activities, Press TV reported.
In an X post on Saturday, Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei drew a contrast between Iran’s long-standing commitment to humanitarian values and Germany’s warmongering approach, advising the European country’s officials to “stay silent” on the ongoing Iran-Israel conflict.
“History reminder: Germany ignited two world wars. Iran sheltered Jews fleeing Hitler – ask Polish/French refugees who got Iranian passports. Those perpetually on the wrong side of history best stay silent now,” he said.
The remarks came after German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul condemned Iran’s retaliatory operation against Israel and claimed that Iran’s nuclear program violates the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).
In another X post on Saturday, the spokesman said French President Emmanuel Macron has chosen to “spin” Tehran’s nuclear activities at a time when the Israeli regime is bombing homes and killing Iranians in cold blood.
“Shameful: Israel targets peaceful nuclear facilities, bombs homes, and kills Iranians in cold blood in blatant violation of international law. Yet Macron chooses *now* to spin Iran's nuclear program. The hypocrisy is staggering,” he said.
