Envoy Raps US Interference in Iran, China’s Affairs
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The Iranian ambassador to Beijing denounced the US government’s bullying policies and its interference in the internal affairs of independent states such as Iran and China.
Addressing a conference at the Iranian Embassy in Beijing, held on Saturday in commemoration of late founder of the Islamic Republic Imam Khomeini, Mohammad Keshavarzzadeh lashed out at the US government for its bullying policies towards the countries that seek to make progress independently.
Pointing to the US’ obstructive activities against Iran’s peaceful nuclear program or its opposition to China’s access to the 5G network technology, the ambassador said the US is under the illusion that it is the superior country, while its wealth and development have been achieved by plundering the other countries.
Paying tribute to Imam Khomeini for leading the Islamic Revolution to victory with the slogan of “independence, freedom and Islamic Republic”, the envoy said Iran respects the independence and sovereignty of the other states and would never interfere in the domestic affairs of others.
“Independence is among the basic values for Iran and China. China has never accepted interference from outsiders in its internal affairs and dismisses such hegemony,” Keshavarzzadeh noted.
The envoy finally noted that the US’ policy of interference in the domestic affairs of the independent states has not ended after more than three decades since the passing away of Imam Khomeini, stressing that Washington’s interference in the issues relating to Hong Kong and Xinjiang has nothing to do with sympathy.
“The only thing that matters to the US is its own interests,” the envoy underlined.
