‘World against US warmongering in ME’
Iran Majlis Speaker Ali Larijani says world nations hate warmongering American policies in the Middle East.
Larijani said in an address to Majlis on Sunday: “The Americans do not see the wave of popular hatred of their warmongering policies and still pursue military action against Syria.”
He added that this is while the British parliament has declared its opposition to military action and this move has been rejected by the UN as well.
US President Barack Obama said on Saturday that he had decided to launch a military attack against Syria for its alleged use of chemical weapons and now seeks congressional consent for the move, which will debate the issue when lawmakers return from recess on September 9.
The British Parliament on Thursday rejected the government motion to support in principle military action against Syria.
Larijani said the US claims that the use of chemical weapons in Syria is apparent while UN inspectors are still investigating the case.
The Speaker queried “The US say they have evidence of the use of chemical weapons so why are they not presenting this evidence to the Security Council?”.
Larijani expressed regret that certain Muslim countries in the region have promised the US to pay the cost of its attack on Syria.
