The Iranian president made the remarks in separate meetings with the new ambassadors of Armenia, Ireland, the UK, Turkmenistan, Sierra Leone, Kenya, Cuba, Kuwait, Mauritania, and the Netherlands, and while receiving their credentials and welcoming them.

President Pezeshkian pointed out that his administration is seeking to promote consensus inside the country and friendly interactions with nations across the world.

Israel’s war on Gaza was also one of the topics the Iranian president discussed with the new British ambassador, Hugo Shorter. 

Pezeshkian criticized Western countries’ inaction on the Zionist regime’s “unprecedented crimes” against innocent women and children in Gaza.

He said the inaction is totally unacceptable and unjustifiable, considering Western states’ claims that they champion human rights. 

More worse is that the US and some European countries send weapons to “this criminal regime", added Pezeshkian, while emphasizing that Iran seeks to establish tranquility, security and peace in the West Asia region and elsewhere in the world.
