Iranian President Ibrahim Raisi took advantage of remarks he made today (Tuesday) to express his support for the Palestinians and to attack - typically Israel.
"The Palestinian issue should always be at the forefront of the Muslim world's priorities," said the so-called "Tehran executioner."
He added: "Global arrogance has supported weak governments in the Muslim world in order to realize its interests and the interests of the Zionist entity."
Raisi made the remarks at the 35th International Conference on Islamic Unity, attended by representatives from 52 countries.

Meanwhile, the President of Iran today tried to indirectly address the ongoing tensions with Azerbaijan, against the background of the excellent relations between Jerusalem and Baku.
"Our relations with our neighbors and with the countries of the region are our top priorities," he said, adding that "most of the meetings I have had so far have been with delegations coming to Iran. The countries of the region have a sincere desire to improve relations with Iran, especially economically and commercially."
