The Iran Project : Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has called on United Nations and its Security Council to take a firm stance against a U.S.-Israeli plan to forcibly transfer the Palestinian people out of Gaza.
Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi (R) held a phone call with UN Chief Antonio Guterres on February 10, 2025, discussing Trump's Gaza displacement plan.
According to The Iran Project, The top diplomat held a phone conversation with UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres on Monday, with the two discussing the ongoing developments in the West Asia region, especially in Gaza in the wake of the plan announced by U.S. President Donald Trump to forcibly transfer the Palestinian people out of the besieged territory.
Trump announced the plan last week in Washington during a press conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, drawing widespread criticism from officials, people and rights groups across the world.
Araghchi condemned “the U.S.-Zionist plan” to displace Gazans and relocate them to other countries, warning that it violates all regulations of international law and the UN Charter, and serves as a completion to the Israeli regime’s ethnic cleansing plan against the Palestinian people.
The United Nations, especially the Security Council, should take a decisive and clear stance against this “dangerous plot” that threatens international peace and security, said the Iranian foreign minister, adding that the international community must prevent the normalization of lawbreaking and criminality of the Israeli regime.
Guterres, for his part, said that the UN rejects any plan that forcibly displaces Palestinians out of their territory, including the residents of Gaza.
The legitimate rights of the Palestinian people must be respected, he stressed.
