Iran condemns Bahrain’s ‘shameful’ normalization deal with Israel
Iran has strongly condemned a normalization agreement between Bahrain and Israel, saying the Manama regime sacrificed the Palestinian cause against the occupation for the upcoming US presidential election through the “shameful” treaty.
In a statement released on Saturday,Iran's Foreign Ministry
said the Bahraini regime had committed a “fundamental mistake” by turning its
back to its own people instead of gaining legitimacy form them.
It had also sought refuge from the regime occupying Jerusalem
al-Quds and sacrificed the Palestinian cause for the domestic US election, the
statement added.
The Foreign Ministry stressed that Iran considers the
announcement on the establishment of diplomatic ties between Israel and Bahrain
as “a shameful and humiliating act” on the part of the latter, which sacrificed
decades of Palestinian struggle and suffering for the US vote.
“The oppressed and right-seeking people of Palestine and the
freedom-seeking Muslims of the world, without doubt, will never accept the
normalization of relations with the usurping and lawless Israeli regime, and
this shameful act will remain in the historical memory of the oppressed and
downtrodden Palestinian nation and the world’s freedom-seeking nations,” it
said.
"The rulers of Bahrain will from now on be complicit in
the crimes of the Zionist regime, which is a source of constant threat to the
security of the region and the Muslim world and the root cause of decades of
violence, massacre, war, terror and bloodshed throughout the oppressed
Palestine and the region.”
Iran’s Foreign Ministry also predicted that the Bahraini
regime’s move would result in “growing anger and lasting hatred” among the
Palestinians, Muslims, and freedom-seeking nations.
It further warned against any act by the Zionist regime
meant to create insecurity in the Persian Gulf region, saying Bahrain and its
allied governments bear responsibility for its consequences.
On Friday, US President Donald Trump announced the
normalization of diplomatic relations between Bahrain and Israel.
