BRAND-NEW DELHI (Reuters) – India has truly condemned remarks made by Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei on the remedy of Muslims within the South Asian nation, calling his statements “misinformed and unacceptable”.
“We cannot consider ourselves to be Muslims if we are oblivious to the suffering that a Muslim is enduring in Myanmar, Gaza, India, or any other place,” Khamenei claimed in a social networks article on Monday.
In motion, India’s worldwide ministry claimed it “strongly deplored” the remarks.
“Countries commenting on minorities are advised to look at their own record before making any observations about others,” the worldwide ministry consultant claimed.
The 2 nations have truly normally shared a strong connection, and licensed a 10-year settlement in May to create and run the Iranian port of Chabahar.
India has truly been establishing the port in Chabahar on Iran’s south-eastern shoreline alongside the Gulf of Oman as a way to ship objects to Iran, Afghanistan and primary Asian nations, bypassing the ports of Karachi and Gwadar in its opponent Pakistan.
Khamenei, however, has truly been essential of India previously over issues entailing Indian Muslims and the struggling Muslim- bulk space of Kashmir.
