Referring to the 13th summit of Islamic Cooperation Organization in Istanbul, Iranian political expert, Parviz Sarvari condemned Saudi Arabia for passing 4 anti-Iran articles and said their measure was against the organizations objectives.
Saudi Arabia has chosen a path that will lead to insecurity and instability and destroy the Islamic nations achievements, Sarvari said.
The inclusion of anti-Iran and anti-resistance articles in the summits final statement was a great service to the Israelis and the Americans, he added.
Criticizing the OIC for its structural and organizational weakness, he said unfortunately, organizations and institutions whose raison d'etre is to support Palestinians and make efforts to maintain the Islamic unity and solidarity are dominated by some countries like Saudi Arabia, which try to advance their own interests using their financial resources.
He went on to say that the OICs recent actions are in support of the enemies of Islam in the region, especially America and Israel.
Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi also criticized the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) earlier for being dominated by certain member states and its failureto avoid bias in its decision-making processes.
