 14:47, 5 January 2024

YEREVAN, JANUARY 5, ARMENPRESS. Iran will respond to the Kerman terror attack, Ambassador of Iran to Armenia Mehdi Sobhani has said.

“Our nation is in sorrow,” Sobhani told Armenpress when asked whether Iran will respond to the Kerman bombings given that the Islamic State assumed responsibility for the bombings. “We are under public pressure in terms of giving a strong response. But we don’t want to act emotionally. We will respond accordingly taking into account the time and the form of the response. Terrorists can’t hold us back from our path by creating an atmosphere of fear. We will definitely punish our enemies, but we will take into account that factors [time and form of response.]”

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
