MNA � The Permanent Mission of the Islamic Republic of Iran to the UN has lashed out at anti-Iran accusations made by the US representative Nikki Haley, saying that Iranophobia is her longstanding addiction.







The Permanent Mission of the Islamic Republic of Iran to the UN released a statement on Monday, lashing out at the accusations made by the US Ambassador to the�UN, Nikki Haley, against Iran.

�Today, once again, the US representative has abused the Middle East related agenda of the UN Security Council to baselessly accuse Iran through means of disinformation and fabrication,� read the statement.

It went on to add, �the US representative, based on the fabricated and misleading information received from the Mojahedin-e-Khalq Organization (MKO) � a known terrorist organization responsible for killing 17,000 Iranians and many Iraqis, which has been delisted by America thereby allowing its soil to be their safe haven �unfoundedly accused Iran of committing terrorist acts.�

The US representative also referred to what she called �an Iranian-backed attack on the US consulate in Basra�; again, a baseless accusation.

�Iranophobia is the longstanding addiction of the US representative, and whitewashing the Israeli regime�s crimes against the Palestinians and the unconditional support of the US for such crimes is her main mission,� said Iran�s mission to the UN.

The statement concluded that �however, despite her repeated attempts in spreading such fabrications, she has already failed in deceiving the audience of such reports and in accomplishing such missions.�
