Iran condemns US “inappropriate behavior” against Iranians
Referring to the US government’s “inappropriate” treatment of immigrants, Baghaei stressed the importance of adhering to international norms, describing the “inhumane actions” of the US government against Iranian nationals as “unacceptable.”
He emphasized that the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, in line with its legal obligations, will take all necessary measures to protect the rights of Iranian citizens abroad, PressTV reported.
He also noted that instructions have been issued to Iran’s Interests Protection Office in Washington, D.C., as well as to diplomatic and consular missions across South America, to provide assistance to Iranian nationals deported from the US.
“Iran is the homeland of all Iranians, and our compatriots can freely return to their homeland,” Baghaei stated, reiterating the Foreign Ministry’s readiness to facilitate their return and resolve related issues.
The remarks come as the first flight carrying migrants from Iran, Afghanistan, China, India, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Turkey, Uzbekistan, and Vietnam arrived in Panama on Wednesday.
During a weekly press conference on Thursday, Panamanian President José Raúl Mulino confirmed the arrival of 119 individuals from various nationalities. “Yesterday a flight from the United States Air Force arrived with 119 people from diverse nationalities of the world,” Mulino said.
