MNA � Deputy Foreign Minister for Legal and International Affairs Gholamhossein Dehghani noted that Organization of Islamic Cooperation was established to enhance unity among Islamic countries.

�Countries which support US sanctions against the Iranian nation violate the spirit of unity among Muslims,� he said addressing the 46th session of the OIC�s Council of Foreign Ministers (CFM), in Abu Dhabi on Saturday.

Elsewhere, he said that the issue of Palestine should remain top on the agenda of OIC, adding, �we do not allow any new developments in the Islamic world to divert attention from addressing the most important and oldest issue we are facing, namely, Palestine.�

Saying that Washington�s decision to move its embassy to Jerusalem is part of a plot dubbed as �Deal of the Century�, the Iranian official expressed worry over some OIC members� indifference towards the Palestinian nation�s rights.

Dehghani went on to say that Iran opposes any decision in OIC which would recognize the Israeli regime as a country.
