The spokesperson of the Iranian Foreign Ministry Nasser Kanaani denounced on Wednesday the Israeli occupation's genocidal nature evident by its vehement rejection of the establishment of an independent Palestinian state.

In a post on X, Kanaani said that the occupation's rejection of an independent Palestinian state is further evidence of its warmongering. 

He remarked that it reveals the fallacies in their false speech calling for peace and resolution and shows that it will always neglect Palestinians' right to self-determination. 

On the contrary, most of the globe's nations support the establishment of a Palestinian State. "The Islamic Republic of Iran and other freedom-loving and right-seeking countries and nations also support the demands and rights of the Palestinian people, which have been ignored for more than 7 decades," Kanaani said.

Israeli gov. rejects recognition of Palestinian State

The Israeli cabinet issued a statement on Sunday firmly rejecting the "unilateral recognition of a Palestinian state by the international community."

This "declarative" decision by the very cabinet currently launching a genocidal war across occupied Palestine was announced during the occupation's weekly cabinet meeting, whereby they maintained that any decision regarding a Palestinian state must arise from direct negotiations between "Israel" and Palestine.

These Israeli occupation statements come in direct contradiction with history, wherein "Israel" was established by occupying Palestinian territories in 1948 under the British Balfour Declaration, as well as massacres and plunder.

Notably, the Israeli occupation's delusory statement did not outright dismiss the concept of a future Palestinian state, existing as part of a "two-state solution". However, the Israeli occupation rejected the recognition of a Palestinian state by other states, as the process of state recognition typically unfolds.

By so doing, "Israel", a settler colonial entity, claims that only it can give a Palestinian state the right to be recognized before anyone else.
