Iran’s President Ebrahim Raeisi has lashed out the international bodies to end the ongoing genocide in Gaza calling for reforms in the UN mechanisms.

He made the call in a joint presser with his Turkish counterpart Recep Tayyip Erdogan, which was held following a two-hour meeting between the two at the presidential palace in Ankara on Wednesday.

“Those who claim to defend human rights and whose mission is to defend global peace and security have been on the sidelines and are no longer effective," he said 

The president called the Palestinian issue the top issue of humanity and said the entire world is shocked by the extent of death and destruction in Gaza.
Raeisi said it’s a tragedy that the US is officially supporting the Israeli genocide and is practically complicit in the war.

“It is a great tragedy that America officially backs the Zionist regime. In fact, it is the United States that commits these crimes, and it is more unfortunate that the unions, international organizations, and the United Nations have lost their effectiveness and are unable to prevent the crimes that have become clear to everyone.”

The Iranian president said international organizations have failed the test of Gaza and showed they’re no longer effective. He said the world should move toward forming new mechanisms to deal with threats to international peace and security.
 
He also called on Arab and Muslim nations to immediately cut ties with the Israeli regime and disrupt its financial lifelines to force the regime to stop its indescribable violence in Gaza.

Raeisi said he and Erdogan agreed that more efforts must be made to support Palestinian resistance and to restore their rights.

He said the Israeli occupation must end and Israelis must compensate for 75 years of crimes against Palestinians.

The Iranian president said Palestinians are the victors of over 100 days of war in Gaza and the Israeli regime is the loser.

In his remarks, the Iranian president also thanked Erdogan for his warm welcome and efforts to expand bilateral relations.

The president said the two countries have had good relations for many years and now they want to elevate these ties to even higher levels in future.
Raeisi said Iran and Turkey are two regional heavyweights who can work to settle regional and even international issues.

Touching on economic cooperation, he said the two countries plan to engage in more efforts to boost bilateral trade to 30 billion dollars.

He said they also agreed to further boost their fight against the scourge of terrorism in the region.
