Iran condemns Trump’s offensive remarks against Khamenei

TEHRAN, June 30 (YPA) – Iran’s Foreign Ministry strongly condemned the US president’s remarks targeting the country’s Supreme Leader, calling them offensive, undiplomatic, and a violation of international norms.

In a statement issued Sunday, the ministry said that “such insolent statements and undiplomatic behavior not only constitute a flagrant violation of universally shared moral principles and the provisions of the Charter of the United Nations –particularly the principle of respect for the right of nations to self-determination– but also represent a blatant affront to a dignified nation with an ancient civilization, and deeply wound the sentiments of hundreds of millions of Muslims across the region and the world.

It described the comments as an insult not only to Iran but to the broader Muslim world, saying they “deeply wounded the sentiments of hundreds of millions of Muslims in the region and around the world.”

The statement warned that such rhetoric only deepens animosity toward the United States. “Undoubtedly, these insulting and bullying remarks and actions against Iran and the respected political and religious figures of Iranians and Muslims will only intensify disgust and hatred toward America’s short-sighted policies and further discredit its claims of seeking dialogue and engagement.”
