Iran supports Palestinian people in their opposition to deal of century: Zarif

Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif voiced support for the Palestinian leaders and people in their opposition to the so-called deal of the century.

AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif voiced support for the Palestinian leaders and people in their opposition to the so-called deal of the century.

In a telephone conversation on Wednesday, Zarif and Secretary-General of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad Movement Ziyad al-Nakhalah discussed the developments in the region, and Palestine in particular.

In the phone call, Zarif roundly condemned the imposed and treacherous plan proposed by US President Donald Trump, voiced support for the unanimous stance of the Palestinian people and leaders in opposition to the unilateral plan, and emphasized the necessity for unity and solidarity among Palestinian groups in their all-out confrontation with the major plot of the century.

The foreign minister also expounded on Iran’s stances in support of the Palestinian people’s rightful and legitimate struggle against the Zionist occupiers, and stressed the need for widespread movements by people and the Islamic countries against the evil American-Zionist ploys.

Last week, Trump unveiled his long-delayed Middle East plan, a proposal Palestinian leaders called a “conspiracy” that “will not pass”.

Following Trump’s announcement, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas said “a thousand no's to the plan.

The American plan has sparked widespread international condemnation.

The deal of century ploy, fronted by Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner, had already been rejected by the Palestinians, who say the White House's policies have been blatantly biased in favor of Israel.
