TEHRAN-- Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir Abdollahian on Thursday categorically dismissed U.S.
declares about the presence of an al-Qaeda leader in Iran, saying linking the terrorist group to the Islamic Republic is patently ridiculous .
Writing on his Twitter account, Amir Abdollahian advised the U.S.
to stop Iranophobia project and stop providing false address about al-Qaeda and other terrorist groups.The chief diplomat blamed the U.S.
for helping to develop al-Qaeda and Daesh, which its savagery in Syria and Iraq surprised the world.
I advise White House to stop the stopped working Iranophobia video game.
Linking Al-Qaeda to Iran is patently unreasonable and unwarranted.
Those who created Al-Qaeda and DAESH must be held liable for spreading out terrorism worldwide.
Do not provide false address! Amir Abdollahian tweeted after State Department representative Ned Price on Wednesday declared that Seif al-Adel, the brand-new leader of al-Qaeda, was based in Iran.Speaking at press instruction, Price accused Iran of offering safe house to al-Qaeda, and providing support for terrorism.
Price stopped working to supply any evidence to validate the claim.Contrary to what the State Department spokesperson declared, Iran has shown the strongest force versus terrorist groups.
Irans fight against Daesh in Iraq and Syria is a concrete example.Irans Permanent Mission to the United Nations in New York also turned down Prices claim, saying the propagation of such false information might possibly prevent efforts to fight terrorism.
The international network of al-Qaeda was taken apart after the death of Osama bin Laden and the organization is no longer in existence but its extremist ideology still continues.
The emergence of ISIS (Daesh) has taken the place of al-Qaeda and has actually generated a brand-new form of terrorism, the mission tweeted, describing the terrorist groups founder who was eliminated in 2011.
It is worth keeping in mind that the address for the so-called freshly appointed al-Qaeda leader is inaccurate.
This misinformation could potentially hinder efforts to combat terrorism, it included, according to Press TV.
