Iran's deputy foreign minister for legal and international affairs, Kazem Gharibabadi, accused London and Paris of 'deliberately' participating in crimes committed by Israel by continuing to supply weapons and support. He said the two countries should not hide behind statements of 'concern' over the situation, in a post on X criticizing Western support for Israel. The remarks reflect Iran's ongoing diplomatic offensive against Western governments it views as enabling Israeli military actions, amid broader tensions between Tehran and European capitals over the region's conflicts and Iran's nuclear standoff.
