Iran reaffirms sovereignty over Persian Gulf islands

Tehran asserts control over disputed islands in the Gulf

Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi emphasizes Tehran’s consistent stance on the three islands in the Persian Gulf, reaffirming sovereignty.

Araghchi highlights the recent meeting between Iranian President Pezeshkian and UAE President Al Nahyan at the BRICS summit, where regional issues were discussed.

Despite differences with the UAE, Iran maintains diplomatic relations with all Persian Gulf states based on good neighborliness and mutual respect.

The joint statement by the EU and GCC regarding the islands sparked Iran’s strong protest, leading to the summoning of Hungary’s ambassador.
