Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Nasser Kanaani responded to the E3's (UK, France, Germany) statement on Tuesday, underscoring that Iran is "steadfast and resolute in exercising its right  to protect its national security and territorial integrity" and "does not seek permission from any external party."

In a press statement, Kanaani added that the European Troika's demand for Iran not to respond to the "Israel's" and punish it, "a crude demand that lacks any political logic and contradicts international laws and resolutions." 

He emphasized that the European trio's statement reflects a public endorsement of the Zionist entity's crimes and regional terrorism. He added that "if the European Trio genuinely seeks to promote peace in the region, it must, at the very least, condemn the Zionist entity’s actions and its genocidal activities in Gaza."

Kanaani also pointed out that "the indifference of Western countries towards the crimes of the Israeli entity and its ongoing genocide of the defenseless Palestinian people, and the failure to hold it accountable, has encouraged it to escalate its atrocities."

He explained that "Germany, France, and Britain have not taken any measures to halt the Zionist entity’s ongoing brutal crimes, and international organizations have similarly failed to deter these actions," stressing that "both the West and the Security Council must take decisive responsibility to stop the severe Israeli atrocities in Gaza."

On Monday, the leaders of France, Germany, and the United Kingdom issued a joint statement in which  they called on Iran and its allies, likely the Ansar Allah movement in Yemen and the Hezbollah Resistance movement in Lebanon, to refrain from taking any actions that would "further escalate regional tensions and jeopardize the opportunity to agree on a ceasefire and the release of hostages."

The statement held them responsible "for actions that jeopardize this opportunity for peace and stability" while disregarding the actions committed by "Israel"
