Iran’s Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani has strongly condemned the recent Israeli strikes on the Palestinians in the besieged Gaza Strip, urging serious and practical action to stop the violence. In a phone call with Anders B. Johnsson, Secretary General of the Inter-Parliamentary Union, described as “shameful and deplorable” the Zionist regime’s wide-scale attack from air, sea and the ground on the innocent people of Gaza. “The time is now ripe for the IPU, as the hub of the world parliaments, to show serious reaction in this regard.” Johnsson said in reply: “The Islamic Republic of Iran’s concern over Israel’s attacks on Gaza is common source of concern by many of the world people and the IPU is soon to issue a statement in this connection to closely follow up the issue.” He noted that an IPU delegation is soon to pay a visit to Gaza. Meanwhile, in a phone call with Professor Erol Kilic, Secretary General of Islamic Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU), condemned the Zionist regime’s crimes and called on the Islamic states to take concrete action in that connection. Also in phone calls with Lebanese Speaker Nabih Berri, Algerian People’s National Assembly Speaker Mohamed al-Arabi Ould Khalifa, Fehmida Mirza, first woman speaker of Pakistan’s National Assembly, Syria’s parliament speaker, Jihad Laham, Osama Al-nujaifi Speaker of Iraqi Council of Representatives, and Tunisia’s National Constituent Assembly (NCA) Speaker Mustapha Ben Jaafar on Friday, Larijani condemned the crimes. He called on Muslim states to take parliamentary measures to condemn the merciless crimes of the Zionist regime in launching air, ground and sea attacks on Gaza.
