Kuwaiti MPs, citizens lash out at threatening' Iranian statements
Iranian Foreign Affairs spokesperson Hameed Rida Asifi's statements and threats are like a spark which has led to a blaze of counter statements from various Gulf officials, reports Al-Anba daily. Asifi was quoted as saying the Republic of Iran has greater abilities than all the Gulf countries and so these countries should be careful in maintaining relations with Iran warning a conflict of any country with Iran will see Iran as the victor. Kuwaiti Members of Parliament (MP) and citizens expressed anger at the Iranian statements saying they are a violation of regulations controlling relations of countries in the same region. Iran is trying to repeat history in a region where conditions have changed, they added. MPs have asked the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to question the Iranian Ambassador to Kuwait on the threats issued by Iran and what they mean. The Iranian threat of return of the 'Shahishahi' way bodes ill, say MPs and politicians in Kuwait.Posted by: Fred 2005-07-07 |
