TEHRAN, November 11 -Western leaders have no interest in establishing peace around the world despite what they claim, says a commentator.
TEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC) -Western leaders have no interest in establishing peace around the world despite what they claim, says a commentator.
The comments came after World leaders gathered in the French capital, Paris, to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the signing of the Armistice that ended World War l.
The Paris ceremony, centered on the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier beneath the Arc de Triomphe, was set to feature warnings about the modern-day dangers of nationalism.
“What are all these countries … doing about climate change and the environmental crisis? The answer is nothing … Is NATO seeking peace? The EU, which is synonymous with NATO, is doing quite the opposite. The United States has military bases everywhere, bombing people, bullying people … So the leaders of the West – the EU, the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada – these people have nothing to do with peace in any of their policies,” John Steppling told Press TV in an interview on Sunday.
“There is an immigration crisis; people fleeing NATO wars that France is directly responsible for along with the United States of course. Look at Yemen, Saudi Arabia, United States, United Kingdom, [and] look at the media, how the media treats all this… So, we see the ruling class revisionism at work in almost everything,” he added.
