Posting on X on Thursday, Baqaei said that National Persian Gulf Day serves as “a reminder of a truth that neither changes with media hype nor is forgotten through political games.”
He stated that in light of tensions in the region, “the stability and security of this body of water can only be understood by respecting the will of the Iranian nation and acknowledging clear historical and geographical realities.”
“Identity cannot be confiscated. Names cannot be erased from the world’s memory,” Baghaei wrote, adding that the Persian Gulf, “a name as old as history itself,” will remain the Persian Gulf.
