In an exclusive interview with the Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA) on the occasion of World Quds Day, Khalid al-Qaddumi said that Imam Khomeini some 40 years ago introduced the Quds as an element for the unity of Muslims and designated one day as Quds Day to mark the occasion.
He said that the Quds Day is of prime importance this year, as “We are in a very sensitive and important historical juncture for Palestine.”
“Quds Day is very important for keeping alive the cause of Palestinian along with the unity of the Islamic world and all freedom-seekers against global arrogance and the bullying of Zionists and Americans who are the common enemy of the Islamic Ummahm”, he said.
Hamas's representative in Tehran, referred to US support for the Zionist regime, and said that since the establishment of this regime, the US has supported the Zionist regime politically, economically and militarily.
The United States has supported the regime in the UN Security Council and the UN and there is a lot of military and financial assistance paid from the pocket of American citizens to this regime, he said.
He also highlighted that the new US government tries the new deal to bear fruit but in fact it has now turned to be a puppet in the hands of the hardliners such as Netanyahu and Zionist regime.
Qadumi stressed that the 'Deal of the Century' like other US measures in the Middle East will not be to the benefits of Muslims and Palestinians.
The deal never helps realize the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people, and this economic aid is nothing more than a fictitious and unrealistic story, he said adding that the Palestinians are firmly opposed to the deal which is doomed to failure the same as other anti-Palestinian plots during the past 70 years, he said.
