Israel’s supporters are responsible for atrocities in Gaza: Iran`s Jalili

TEHRAN,Nov.18(MNA) – The secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council has said that the Western governments that support the Zionist regime should be held accountable for its criminal actions in the Gaza Strip. SNSC Secretary Saeed Jalili made the remarks during a meeting with Syrian Deputy Prime Minister Qadri Jamil and Syrian Minister of State for National Reconciliation Ali Haidar in Tehran on Saturday. “The Western governments that support the Zionist regime account for the blood of Palestinian women and children that has been unjustly shed in Gaza,” Jalili said, in reference to the recent Israeli attacks against the Gaza Strip. He also stated that the silence of the United States and certain other Western countries on the Zionist regime’s crimes in Gaza is in direct contradiction to their claims about democracy. Commenting on a Syrian “national dialogue” meeting, which will be held in Tehran on Sunday, Jalili said that the meeting will be a turning point in Syria’s developments and is a step forward to restore stability and security in Syria. Qadri Jamil, for his part, said that the United States does not intend to promote democracy in Syria, but it is seeking to undermine the achievements of the Syrian nation.
