Cairo, March 5 (SANA)– Arab League Secretary-General Ahmed Aboul Gheit warned on Wednesday that the continued Iranian attacks against Arab countries constitute a grave strategic mistake that deepens existing rifts, urging Tehran to halt its operations immediately.
In a statement issued by the League on its social media platforms, Aboul Gheit condemned the Iranian attacks, saying they are “not only a blatant violation of international law and the UN Charter, but also an assault on the principles of good neighbourliness. They are creating an unprecedented level of hostility between Iran and its Arab neighbours and causing a deep rupture whose impact will echo for years to come.”
Aboul Gheit added that while “no one underestimates the hardships of the war Iran is facing, there is absolutely no justification for targeting neighbouring Arab states in an attempt to drag them into a conflict that is not theirs, especially when several Arab countries have worked tirelessly to prevent such a catastrophic war.”
He emphasised that this is a “serious strategic miscalculation by Iran” and expressed hope that it will be corrected through an immediate end to the attacks.
