AIMajid Ansari, Iran’s vice president for legal affairs, stressed the need to adhere to the principles of international law in dealings with Iran, stating that the era of arrogance and violations of the law has ended, and that resorting to force and pressure over the nuclear issue will yield no results. He added that Iran demands fair and equal treatment in all legal matters, including its nuclear rights and sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz.
According to the IRNA news agency, Ansari said the Iranian people have shown resilience and resistance in the face of recent events and wars, remaining steadfast from the first moments of the twelve-day war, through subsequent events, and during the Ramadan War, continuing to stand bravely despite economic and living hardships.
He added that the presence and patience of the Iranian people have thwarted the plans of adversaries who, by imposing illegal and inhumane wars and committing war crimes, sought to achieve their goals. Ansari noted that the roots of the Iranian people’s resilience stem from the Fatimid school and the teachings of Ahl al-Bayt.
Speaking about the government’s performance during the war, Ansari said that despite difficult circumstances, the government managed to continue providing energy, public services, and basic needs to citizens, maintaining the operation of the transport system, healthcare sector, and other essential services.
The vice president also stated that global public conscience stands with the Iranian people, noting that opposition to the war on Iran and the injustices faced by its people were, in his view, among the main factors contributing to the electoral defeat of the majority party in the United States.
