Iran blasts Arab League statement on Iranian Islands in Persian Gulf

Foreign Ministry spokesman Ramin Mihman-Parast on Monday lambasted the Arab League for statement on Iranian islands of Abu Musa and the Greater and Lesser Tunbs and called the move as blatant violation of Iranian territorial integrity.

The Arab League in their 22nd summit in Libya once again repeated baseless allegations about Iranian islands.

Mihman-Parast said the three Iranian islands are integral part of Iranian territory and making such baseless and unwise allegations will never leave impact on Iran’s national sovereignty over the islands.

The dispute must be resolved by merely bilateral negotiations and interference of a third party will not be helpful, he said.
