Iran slams G7 summit final statement
Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Nasser Kanaani strongly condemned parts of the final statement of the Group of Seven (G7) summit in Hiroshima, Japan, including its baseless and fabricated allegations against the Islamic Republic of Iran.
As repeatedly stated before, Iran’s nuclear program has only peaceful purposes, and nuclear weapons have no place in the Iranian defense doctrine, Kanaani stressed, according to IRNA.
He strongly rejected the selective statement and the illusory claims made by the members of this group that possess nuclear weapons.
“While the hegemonic policies of some of the G7 members have created insecurity and instability in the world, in general, and the region, in particular, they accuse Iran of destabilization,” he stressed.
They have based their accusations on an erroneous interpretation of the resolutions of the UN Security Council, of which they themselves are the main violators, Kanaani said.
The Islamic Republic of Iran has never provided drones to Russia in the Ukraine crisis and continues to insist on a peaceful solution in this regard, he stated.
