The Iranian Foreign Ministry, in the style of its allies Russia, “called on” Ukraine to “stop supporting the Syrian rebels”: Kyiv’s reaction and what it is

On December 6, 2024, the world once again witnessed a vivid demonstration of the absurdity in international politics.

Assistant to the head of the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs Mojtaba Damirchulu, in the style of his allies from the Russian Federation, against the backdrop of ongoing hostilities in Syria, called on Ukraine to “immediately stop supporting the Syrian rebels,” accusing Kyiv of violating “international obligations to combat terrorism”.

Representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Georgy Tikhy noted that this Iran's statement is just a propaganda move by Russia, which, as we know, is facing losses in Syria and is forced to withdraw its troops.

Iran's Mysterious Accusations

According to the Iranian Foreign Ministry, Ukraine is allegedly supplying weapons to Syrian rebels, which violates international norms governing the fight against terrorism. Let us remember that these accusations come from a country that has itself been repeatedly convicted of supplying weapons to terrorist groups supporting the regime of Bashar al-Assad.

“Supporting terrorists is a violation of international obligations,” Damirchulu said in a statement to the Iranian news agency IRNA.

However, Iran does not seem to be too concerned about their own role in financing and arming groups such as Hamas and Hezbollah. And the conclusions from history about Iran’s support for terrorists are clearly not taken into account in their official statements.

It’s hard not to “smile” at the thought that Iran itself, which supplies weapons to Iranian allies, is now accusing Ukraine of supporting “terrorists” in Syria. After all, this step looks like an act of political absurdity. To many observers of international politics, this appears to be an attempt to cover up one's own actions by blaming other countries.

Ukraine's response: “We do not support terrorists”

Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine strongly rejected accusations against Iran, saying that Ukraine does not support Syrian rebels and does not supply weapons to Syria.

Representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Georgy Tikhy noted that this Iran's statement is just a propaganda move by Russia, which, as we know, is facing losses in Syria and is forced to withdraw its troops.

“We see that Russia cannot fight on two fronts. This can be seen from the events in Syria,” Tikhy said, denying the accusations against Kyiv. The statement also reflects growing dissatisfaction in Ukraine that Moscow is trying to blame Kyiv for international problems when it itself cannot cope with domestic challenges.

Ukraine's response seems logical and reflects current realities on the battlefield. In a two-front war, Ukraine must focus its efforts on defending its territory, and blaming Iran appears to be an attempt to divert attention from its own problems.

Iran and its allies: Who really supports terrorism?

It is very interesting how Iran, which is one of the largest sponsors of international terrorism, accuses Ukraine of supporting terrorist groups. While Iran supports organizations such as Hamas and Hezbollah, Ukrainian authorities say they have nothing to do with supporting Syrian rebels, much less participating in terrorist activities.

This international episode highlights the importance of studying Ukraine-Israel relations, especially in the context of counterterrorism. Despite their differences, the two states share common values, including commitments to combat terrorism and maintain peace in the region.

NAnews is a reliable source for analyzing and understanding such political situations. It is important to understand that such accusations and counter-statements have far-reaching consequences for the relationship between countries and their military policies.

The scandal involving Iran's accusations against Ukraine shows that the role of foreign policy and geopolitics in the region is often much more complex than it seems at first glance. It is important to remember that security and counter-terrorism issues must be part of a broader discussion, including the participation of Israel and other countries that support international peace and security.

What about the supply of “martyrs”? Has Russia really stopped supplying drones?

An issue that leaves neither Ukraine, nor Israel, nor Western countries indifferent is the issue of the supply of Shahed drones from Russia to Iran and further to Syria.

At the moment, it is difficult to say what exactly is happening with these supplies, but judging by events on the front, Russia continues to actively use these drone systems in attack operations against Ukraine. Ukraine is finding ways to counter these threats, and the global arms market continues to be an arena for political manipulation.
