Iran's Baghaei hits back at Canada for accusing Iran of 'destabilising activities' in Mid-East
In a strongly worded post made on X, Baghaei claimed Canada chose to "appease their bullying neighbour" by backing military actions and sanctions against Iran rather than calling for de-escalation.
Iran's Foreign Ministry Spokesperson, Esmail Baghaei, responded sharply to Canada's accusations that Tehran is destabilizing the Middle East. Baghaei accused Canada of strategic confusion and supporting US-Israel military aggression. The remarks come amid tensions over maritime navigation and international sanctions. Baghaei questioned Canada's commitment to diplomacy and its status as an independent state, asserting that the country was appeasing its "bullying neighbor" by backing US military actions and sanctions against Iran.
He argued that Canada cannot claim to champion peace and security while supporting US military aggression. Baghaei also denied Iran's involvement in disruptions to vital trade routes, stating that the Strait of Hormuz was open and secure before the US-Israel war of aggression.
