Iranian Foreign Ministry condemns G7 leaders' joint statement

Iran's Foreign Ministry condemns the joint statement of G7 leaders published by the Canadian government on Monday, Iranian MFA Spokesperson Esmaeil Baqaei said on X, Report informs.

"G7 Leaders’ statement has revealingly disregarded Israel's blatant aggression against Iran, and the unlawful attacks on our peaceful nuclear infrastructure as well as indiscriminate targeting of residential areas and killing of our citizens. Member States of G7, in particular the three permanent members of the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) must shoulder their legal and moral responsibility towards an egregious act of aggression against a UN member," Baqaei wrote.

The spokesperson added that Israel attacked Iran's nuclear sites in violation of Article 2(4) of the UN Charter and in defiance of the prohibition of use/threat of force against peaceful nuclear facilities.

He noted that hundreds of innocent people have been killed, Iranian public and state facilities and people's homes are brutally demolished and hospitals and health centers are targeted.
