(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - The Iranian foreign ministry rapped the al-Khalifa regime for its brutal crackdown on peaceful protests, and deplored the world countries' silence on the suppression of the Bahraini demonstrators.
"Regional and international silence toward the suppression of protestors is unacceptable; western states and international communities should avoid paradoxical behaviors towards different countries," Foreign Ministry Spokesman Ramin Mehman-Parast said in a statement on Friday.
Mehman-Parast noted that foreign military interference will not solve Bahrain's problems.
"We hope the Bahraini government would refrain from usage of violence against the demonstrators and regain the trust of the nation by freeing political prisoners," spokesperson underscored.
Bahraini troops heavily rely on tear gas and stun grenades to disperse peaceful anti-government protests. Several Bahraini civilians, mostly senior citizens and kids, who had not participated in protest rallies, have also died from asphyxia after regime troops fired tear gas in residential areas and into houses in violation of international standards that Bahrain has signed up to.
