Avash News: At a ceremony commemorating the martyrs Amir Abdollahian and Kamal Kharrazi—two former Iranian foreign ministers—Zarif said he was mourning the loss of two brothers and colleagues. Zarif, also the founder of the Paiab Institute, described these two figures as noble and ethical.
Zarif noted: “As our martyred leader said, the era of hit-and-run aggression is over. Two nuclear powers unjustly attacked Iran, violated international law, and sacrificed the children of Minab to Epstein’s devils. Yet, they could not bring the Iranian nation to its knees, and they will not.”
He emphasized that Iran has faced many aggressions. “They will be consigned to the dustbin of history. The people resisted in the streets and on the battlefield, and the aggressors’ ambitions were buried. All our honor is owed to the martyrs, the selfless defenders, and their families.”
Zarif added: “We, our people, and our armed forces are our greatest guarantees. Our friends in diplomacy can stand with self-confidence and dignity against murderers and child killers, defending the nation’s rights without fear. By choosing the path of national advancement, we are not worried about the future.”
Streets, Diplomacy, and the Battlefield Are Our Greatest Guarantees
He continued: “Throughout history, great Iran has faced invasions, but most of the time it has either assimilated aggressors into its culture and civilization or consigned them to the dustbin of history. Today will be no different.”
Zarif concluded: “The future is full of opportunities and challenges, but those who attempt to threaten us have realized that they cannot make the people surrender through bullying.”
