‘Palestinian state will never relinquish right to entire homeland’
TEHRAN, Sept. 26 (MNA) - Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said that the establishment of a Palestinian government on part of the Palestinian homeland does not mean that the Palestinians will relinquish their title to all of the occupied territories.
Ahmadinejad made the remarks during an interview with Al Jazeera’s correspondent in New York on Saturday in reference to Acting Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas’ bid for recognition of a Palestinian state, which was submitted to the United Nations on September 23.
“Finally, the United States and this country’s allies came to the conclusion that the Zionist regime cannot survive and has reached the end of the line. Therefore, they are compelled to recognize a Palestinian government,” Ahmadinejad stated.
He added, “Certain governments raised the issue of the establishment of a Palestinian government as a historical tactic to create an opportunity to save the Zionist regime.”
“But this tactic will undoubtedly not help save the Zionist regime because the Middle East region will not accept the irregular patch of the Zionist regime and will reject it,” he stated.
Ahmadinejad also said, “The hegemonistic powers… are compelled to recognize a Palestinian government, but they are seeking to make the most of the situation.”
“The Palestinian nation existed before and during World War II, so the establishment of an entity named Palestinian government is a weird issue. The Palestinians have the right to have their own government and exercise sovereignty. However, the international structures and certain powers have deprived them of this right,” he stated.
“The Palestinian nation has existed like a flowing river throughout history and will continue to exist, and if the UN does not recognize it, it (will mean that it) has actually made a departure from its original mission.
“Even if certain current Palestinian leaders do not restore their nation’s right, leaders will emerge in the future who will restore their right.”
Ahmadinejad added, “The Palestinian nation cannot be wiped off history, and the 65 years of efforts that colonialist powers have made in this regard have been futile.”
The Islamic Republic of Iran believes that the Palestinians deserve more than what is supposed to be given to them, he stated.
“(However,) the establishment of a Palestinian government after years of combat, is a step toward the fulfillment of the nation’s right,” the Iranian president said.
