Palestine serves as key to regional stability, security: Iranian deputy FM
Irans Deputy Foreign Minister AliBagheriKani has described the Palestinian issue as the key to establishment of stability and security in the Middle East, stating that any initiative that overlooks the rights of the Palestinian nation causesinstability and disrupts the security of the region.

Bagheri Kani made the remarks during a meeting with Qatars Deputy Foreign Minister for Regional Affairs Mohammed binAbdulaziz al-Khulaifiand the accompanying delegation in Tehran on Saturday night.

The Iranian diplomat termed attention to the Palestinian issue a humanitarian and Islamic duty for all regional countries, emphasizing that the stability of the region depends on full restoration of Palestinians rights.

Bagheri Kani went on to point to efforts being made by the United States and the Tel Aviv regime to wipePalestine fromthe political geography of the region and the world.

Palestine is the key to regional stability and security. Therefore, any initiative that ignores the rights of the Palestinian nation is a source of instability and disturbs the regional security, he highlighted.

The Iranian deputy foreign minister also praised the successful neighborhood policy of Irans incumbent administration, stating that Tehran seeks to further promote multilateral and regional cooperation in the next phase.

Bagheri Kani lauded the enhancement of Tehran-Doha bilateral relations,saying, We welcome Qatar's effective role in advancing the second phase of Iran's neighborhood policy and promoting multilateral regional cooperation.

For his part, Khulaifipointed to the historical commonalities between Qatar and Iran and hailed the growing bilateral relations between the two Muslim countries in all spheres.

The Qatari diplomat underlined that meetings and consultations between diplomats from the two countries will provide the basis for further expansion of such ties.

Palestinians want the West Bank as part of a future independent Palestinian state, with East al-Quds as its capital.

The last round of Israeli-Palestinian talks collapsed in 2014, with Israels continued settlement expansion emerging as a key sticking point.

All Israeli settlements are deemed illegal under international law as they are built on the occupied land.

The UN Security Council has time and again condemned the occupying regimes diabolic settler-colonialism project in its umpteen resolutions.

Between 600,000 and 750,000 Israelis occupy over 250 illegal settlements built since the 1967 occupation of the Palestinian territories of the West Bank and East al-Quds.

Khulaifialso stressed the importance of reviving the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, stating that its restoration is in the interest of the security and stability of the region.

The United States, under former president Donald Trump, abandoned the accord, officially known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), in May 2018 and reinstated cripplingsanctions that the agreement had lifted.

The talks to salvage the agreement kicked off in the Austrian capital in April last year, months after Joe Biden succeeded Trump, to examine the potential of the US return to the deal and removal ofsanctions.

Despite notable progress, the US indecisiveness and procrastination caused multiple interruptionsin the marathon talks.
