Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Nasser Kanaani’s reaction to the United States’ vetoing of a UN Security Council resolution on Gaza

Kanaani has condemned Washington’s vetoing again of a UN Security Council resolution aimed at establishing an immediate humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza saying “The United States proved once again that it is the main player and contributor to the killing of civilians and Palestinian citizens especially women and children and the destruction of vital infrastructure in Gaza.”

Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Nasser Kanaani has condemned Washington’s vetoing, again, of a UN Security Council resolution aimed at establishing an immediate humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza, saying, “The United States proved once again that it is the main player and contributor to  the killing of civilians and Palestinian citizens, especially women and children, and the destruction of vital infrastructure in Gaza.”

 

“Since the onset of the child-killing Zionist regime’s brutal onslaught on Gaza, the US regime has, time and again, proven its alliance and cooperation with the apartheid Israeli regime in committing war crimes and genocide against the Palestinian nation,” he explained.

 

“Current American officials who, hiding behind a cloak of hypocrisy, had voiced concern over the lives of children and civilians in Gaza, sent their 200th consignment of arms and military assistance to the child-killing Israeli military last week, and have, over the past more than two months, spared no military, political, intelligence and media support for the barbaric crimes committed by the Zionist regime against defenseless Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank,” he said.

 

“Undoubtedly, the US government has been an accomplice in the merciless killing of nearly 18,000 civilians, around 8,000 of whom are oppressed children, and definitely, the United States and usurper Israel regimes will be responsible for the consequences of any possible spread of war in the region,” the spokesman noted.

 

Kanaani underlined that US authorities’ heritage of anti-human and racist policies will only bring shame and disgrace for posterity in that country.
