Iran Lambasts Germany’s Backing for Israeli Aggression
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The spokesperson for the Iranian Foreign Ministry denounced the German chancellor’s expression of support for the Israeli regime’s military aggression against Iran.
“Chancellor Friedrich Merz persists in his support for Israeli regime’s lawless behavior & atrocity crimes at the cost of contravening the fundamental principles of the UN Charter and int’l law,” Esmaeil Baqaei said in a post on his X account on Friday.
“Herr Merz, a law graduate, must know very well that Israel’s unprovoked armed attack against Iran was a flagrant violation of Article 2(4) of the Charter of the United Nations and a blatant act of AGGRESSION,” the Iranian spokesman added.
“Endorsing an injustice is no less than complicity in it,” he warned.
“German Chancellor’s persistent backing of Israeli regime’s war of aggression against Iran & the ensuing war crimes entails German government’s int’l responsibility for acting as an accomplice in Israel’s wrongful/criminal acts, and the German government cannot shrug it off,” Baqaei added.
The Zionist regime waged an unprovoked war of aggression against Iran on June 13. It carried out airstrikes on Iran’s nuclear, military and residential sites that resulted in the martyrdom of over 1,000 people, including top military commanders, nuclear scientists and ordinary citizens.
German Chancellor Merz said later that Israel was doing the “dirty work” for everyone by striking Iran.
