“My administration will prioritize the issue of Palestine as the central issue of the Islamic world; We will make efforts to bring an end to the war against Gaza and stop the killing of the defenseless Palestinian people, with the cooperation of other Islamic and neighboring countries and using all political and diplomatic means”, Pezeshkian told Hamas’ Political Bureau Chief Esmail Haniyeh during a phone conversation on Sunday.

As the next step, the Iranian president-elect said, his administration will follow up on the end of the decades-long occupation of Palestine.
“We believe that the future of Gaza should be decided by the Palestinian people and within a Palestinian-Palestinian agreement. Without taking this reality into consideration, any other initiative will be doomed to failure”, he stressed.
Pezeshkian said that Iran’s support for Palestine is based on Islamic, humanitarian, and moral teachings as well as guidance by the late Imam Khomeini and the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei.
