According to The Iran Project, Qalibaf made the remarks in a Sunday meeting with the IPU President Tulia Ackson on the sidelines of the 149th Assembly of the IPU in Geneva, Switzerland.

He said the people of the world expect the IPU states to exert political pressure on Israel to end its crimes in Palestine and Lebanon.

He added that the region is currently in a difficult situation due to the ongoing developments, including the war between Russia and Ukraine and Israel’s aggression against Palestine and Lebanon.

The top Iranian parliamentarian emphasized that when the Israeli regime, with direct US support, violates all international and humanitarian laws, no one can expect the establishment of peace and security.

Qalibaf stressed the importance of addressing the Palestinian issue and said the participants at the IPU summit should take steps towards the adoption of a resolution given the positive coordination among Arab, Muslim and Asian countries.
