Tehran, YJC. Lawmaker says Iran’s Foreign Ministry has not appeared tough enough against the European parliament.
Right-wing lawmaker Esmail Kosari in interview with Nasim
pointing to the European Parliament’s recent resolution on Iran said "It is a
pity that weak diplomatic reaction against the EU and US has emboldened the EU
enough to pass resolutions against Iran.”
"If the Iranian diplomatic department had reminded the
crimes of the US and EU to them, telling them what brutalities they committed
in the WWII and after; even how the French tortured Africans, neither European nor
American countries would have become so bold to pass resolutions against Iran as
they do,” the Majlis member said.
He further asserted "The government and the diplomatic
system must give a crushing response to the EU and the West. They have also to
ban all European political entities from setting foot on the soil of Iran so
that they may understand that neither the Iranian nation nor the government owe
any gratitude to them.”
Kosari emphasized that the Iranian parliament will not allow
the EU to launch headquarters in Iran.
