Press TV- Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif has called for the implementation of policies directed at fostering inclusion and dialogue throughout the globe to reduce tensions brought about by terrorism and extremism.

“As the inheritors of ancient civilians, with the necessary depth of understanding and historical reflection to appreciate that triumphs as well as trials and tribulation are but short moments in the millennial historical retrospect, we need to challenge the paradigms of “might makes right”, the paradigm of exclusion, which has invariably brought wars, atrocities, occupation, oppression, discrimination and displacement,” Zarif wrote in a post published on his official Twitter page on Monday evening.

He added, “The rampant terrorism and extremism across the globe are heinous products of this outdated paradigm. We need a clear departure from ‘paradigm of exclusion’ to ‘paradigm of dialogue and inclusion’ based on mutual respect and equal footing.”
