TEHRAN (FNA)- Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister for Arab and African Affairs Hossein Amir Abdollahian called on the US officials to avoid hypocrisy an ambiguous stances on terrorism in Iraq."The US should specify its relationship with terrorist acts in Iraq," Amir Abdollahian said in a meeting with Omani Foreign Minister Yusuf bin Alawi bin Abdullah in Masqat on Wednesday.
He also underlined the necessity for decisive campaign against terrorism in line with the political trend in Iraq as two key factors in resolving the problems in that country, and urged collective cooperation to this end.
"All countries should help Iraq in fighting terrorism since security of Iraq is an important component of security of all regional states," Amir Abdollahian said.
In relevant remarks early this month, Iran's Judiciary Chief Sadeq Amoli Larijani lashed out at the US and other western states for their double-standard policies on terrorism in and out of Iraq.
"These countries call themselves as advocates of human rights, but they have brought human rights to a slaughterhouse, how can one believe that the Americans are advocates of human rights while they support the terrorists," Amoil Larijani said, addressing high-ranking judiciary officials in Tehran last week.
He said that the US and Israel which are displeased with the democratic elections recently held in Iraq and Syria are now happy with the terrorist operations happening in the two countries, which explains their double-standard policies on terrorism.
Amoli Larijani underlined that the events in the Middle-East indicate that the West doesnt care for human rights and democracy at all.
