Chairman of the Palestinian National Council (PNA) Salim Zanoun has condemned the Israeli regime’s propaganda against Iran’s peaceful nuclear energy program.

“The Palestinian people express their solidarity with the Islamic Republic of Iran in its attempt to achieve peaceful nuclear energy,” Zanoun said in a message to Iran’s Majlis (parliament) Speaker Ali Larijani on Sunday.

He lashed out at arrogant powers for keeping silent on the nuclear arsenals of Israel.

The United States and Israel have repeatedly threatened Tehran with the “option” of a military strike based on the allegation that Iran’s nuclear energy program may include a covert military aspect.

Iran has categorically refuted the US-led allegations regarding its nuclear energy program, saying that as a signatory to the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and a member of the International Atomic Energy Agency, it is entitled to develop and acquire nuclear technology for peaceful purposes.

The PNA chairman also expressed his appreciation for the Iranian government and nation’s support for the Palestinian people’s rights and their condemnation of the Israeli regime’s racist measures to falsify the cultural identity of Palestine.

He voiced his readiness to expand joint cooperation with Iran’s Majlis to adopt necessary measures with the purpose of countering the criminal acts of the Israeli regime.
