TEHRAN, May 23, YJC - Iran’s Parliament Spokesman, referring to the US president’s trip to Riyadh, says Riyadh is an exporting center of terrorism.
TEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC) - "That the US president has announced that he has taken money from Saudi government to partake in the [Islamic American] meeting is interesting”, the Iranian Parliament Spokesman Ali Larijani said in his pre-agenda speech.
He asserted "the Americans’ announcing Riyadh as a center for fighting terrorism was appropriate because the center of exporting terrorism is there”.
Larijani added that if the US succeeds to cut off the money, arms, and militants sent by Saudi Arabia to the world, then neither twin towers in New York will be exploded nor thousands of innocent people will be killed and injured in Iraq, Syria, and Lebanon.
The US and Saudi Arabia, along with a number of their regional allies, stand accused of providing weapons and financial backing to various militant groups wreaking havoc in countries like Syria and Iraq.
