FM Araghchi decries global silence over Israel’s ‘kill list’ of Iranian officials

Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi criticizes the international community for remaining silent as the Israeli regime drags the United States into an “even deeper moral and political abyss” by assassinating senior Iranian officials from “a kill list.”

ABNA24 - Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi criticizes the international community for remaining silent as the Israeli regime drags the United States into an “even deeper moral and political abyss” by assassinating senior Iranian officials from “a kill list.”

In a post on his X account on Wednesday night, Araghchi said that the world would erupt in condemnation and act immediately had Iran presented such a list to a foreign ambassador marking senior American officials for assassination.  

“Imagine an Iranian President coolly presenting a ‘kill list’ to a foreign ambassador: the U.S. President, Congressional leaders, top Generals. And then declaring, without hesitation: “We will eliminate them, one by one,” he wrote.

“Within hours, the world would erupt. Emergency UN Security Council sessions. Relentless media hysteria. Sanctions, threats, perhaps even war—wrapped neatly in the language of ‘international law’ and defending the ‘global order,’” he added.

The foreign minister lamented that when it comes to Israel the international rules and regulations do not apply. “The very same guardians of ‘law and order’ fall silent, equivocate, or worse, supply the weapons and the cover.”

“What is unfolding before our eyes is not hypocrisy. Hypocrisy implies shame. This is something colder: a calculated moral collapse—where rules exist only for adversaries, and impunity is reserved for allies,” Araghchi wrote.

“As always, Israel leads the way in dragging its U.S. partner into an ever deeper moral and political abyss. Israel has no regard for the repercussions of the normalization of its heinous methods of terror. But the international community should not disregard that recklessness; as for every action there will inevitably and always be a reaction,” he added.
