Iran expected Arab League to be constructive, says Kanaani after summit

Tehran, IRNA – The Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman has expressed dismay at a statement issued at the end of an Arab League summit in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, saying it was a repetition of ungrounded claims leveled against Iran.

Nasser Kanaani said on Sunday that Arab League has chosen to travel on an unending path by raising issues about Iran in a statement issued a day earlier at the end of the 32nd meeting of Arab League leaders. 

He said the Arab League was expected to take a positive and constructive step towards ensuring peace and stability in the region instead of repeating baseless claims.

However, the Iranian official welcomed the constructive approach adopted by some regional countries towards strengthening cooperation in the region and giving priority to mutual understanding.

According to the spokesman, the Islamic Republic of Iran has always stressed the importance of having comprehensive cooperation in the region.

At the end of his remarks, Kanaani emphasized that the three Persian islands of Abu Musa, the Greater Tunb, and the Lesser Tunb belong to Iran and the country rejects any claim about them.
