Tehran, IRNA – Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesman described EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell’s garden/jungle comment as arising from colonial mentality.

“The garden/jungle metaphor arises from an utterly unacceptable colonial mentality which gives the West a right to invade and occupy,” Nasser Kanaani wrote in a tweet on Tuesday.

“That era has long gone. Multipolarity is on the doorstep,” the spokesman noted.

He added, “EU needs to adopt the realities, otherwise it will continue to decline and fade.”
