The Leader made the remarks in a meeting with Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani in Tehran on Monday. Iranian President Ebrahim Raeisi was also present at the meeting.
“The Americans are, in the true sense of the word, accomplices of the Zionists in the crimes of Gaza,” Ayatollah Khamenei said.
He appreciated Iraq’s firm stance in supporting the people of Gaza, stressing the need to ramp up the political pressure of the Muslim world on the US and the Zionist regime to stop the massacre of the people of Gaza.
“Iraq, as an important country in the region, can play a special role in this field and create a new line in the Arab world and the Islamic world,” he said.
The Leader maintained that from the very first days of the Zionist regime’s aggression against Gaza, all the evidence showed the direct involvement of the Americans in managing the war.
As this war goes on, he said, the reasons behind the direct role of the United States in directing the crimes of the Zionist regime would become more evident.
“If there were no military and political aid from the US, the Zionist regime would not be able to continue. The Americans are, in the true sense of the word, accomplices of the Zionists in their crimes in Gaza.”
