Iranian Spokesman Praises Irish MEP for Condemning Israeli Crimes
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Spokesperson for the Iranian Foreign Ministry Esmaeil Baqaei hailed Irish Member of the European Parliament Michael McNamara for denouncing Israel’s atrocities, highlighting his remarks as a reminder to Europe of its responsibilities toward peace and justice.
In a post on his X account, Baqaei wrote, “Michael McNamara rightly exposed Israel’s war crimes & genocide in Gaza, its repression in the West Bank, and its criminal act of aggression against Iran.”
He went on to stress that European governments should take note of McNamara’s position, adding, “This is what E3/EU need to heed if they want to be regarded as credible/responsible/law-abiding actors capable of contributing to world peace.”
McNamara, an independent MEP from Ireland, has been vocal in recent sessions of the European Parliament, openly criticizing the Israeli regime over its onslaught on Gaza and its oppressive policies in the West Bank.
Iranian officials have repeatedly condemned the West’s silence on the Israeli regime’s actions, calling on the EU to abandon double standards and respect international law.
