Paris on Saturday hosted an annual meeting organized by the MKO terrorist group which was attended by former Saudi intelligence chief, Prince Turki al-Faisal. The former Saudi spy chief gave a 30-minute address to the gathering.
On Tuesday, Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif criticized Faisal for taking part in the MKO rally and said that the former Saudi intelligence chief and his ilk face a fate similar to that of the former Iraqi dictator, Saddam Hussein.
He [Faisal] has created both al-Qaeda and Taliban and played a very disgraceful role in the past record of Al Saud regime, he said.
The MKO is the most hated terrorist group among the Iranians because of its dark history of assassinations and bombings and for siding with the former Iraqi dictator, Saddam Hussein, in his eight-year war against Iran in the 1980s.
