Iran, Mauritania Underline Muslim World’s United Action against Israel
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Iran’s Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian and his Mauritanian counterpart Mohamed Salem Ould Merzoug stressed the need for united action by Muslim countries to counter the Zionist regime’s aggression.
The two top diplomats in a phone conversation congratulated each other on the holy month of Ramadan and discussed bilateral ties and regional developments, particularly the situation in Palestine.
Amirabdollahian congratulated the top Mauritanian diplomat on the successful holding of the meeting of the OIC’s foreign ministers in Nouakchott and invited him to visit Tehran, which was welcomed by the top Mauritanian diplomat.
The two foreign ministers held talks over the current situation in Palestine and the recent acts of aggression by the Zionists as well as their desecration of the al-Aqsa Mosque and raid on Palestinian worshippers.
Amirabdollahian and Merzoug underlined the need for united action by Islamic countries in order to counter the Zionist regime’s aggression, the Iranian Foreign Ministry’s website reported.
Given that Mauritania holds the presidency of the OIC, pushing for an emergency meeting of the organization was another issue the Iranian and Mauritanian foreign ministers discussed.
