Delegations from more than ten countries, including Turkey, departed during Israeli President Isaac Herzog's opening remarks at the CICA summit in Azerbaijan on Thursday. Iran's deputy legal minister, Kazem Gharibabadi, criticized Herzog's speech, stating that sustainable security in Asia could not be achieved through threats and pressure.
Instead, Gharibabadi advocated for mutual respect, trust-building, and equal cooperation among independent states. He warned that unless the international community intervenes to halt America and Israel's aggression, it would spread to all countries in Asia, particularly in the West.
