Iran rejects UK, Israel claims over “nuclear threat”

In reaction to a meeting of the Israeli and UK prime ministers, Nasser Kanaani said, “It is one of the lasting ironies of history that two regimes, one of which is based on the usurpation of another nation’s land, everyday crimes and infanticide, and that brazenly refuses to join the NPT despite having an arsenal of nuclear weapons, and the other one, whose warmongering and seditious policies can be seen everywhere in the region, brazenly level accusations against the Islamic Republic of Iran, which is the anchor of stability in the region!”

Kanaani added, at a time when the region is witnessing positive developments, it is not strange that the Israeli regime and Britain are angry and dissatisfied with the trend in the region and struggle to weaken and destroy this process.
