Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian said on Thursday that "part of the recent events in Iran were peaceful protests, and we support them."

In a telephone conversation with his Irish counterpart Simon Coveney, Amir-Abdollahian added, "According to the Iranian constitution, we consider the peaceful protests in support of demands as a legal right of the people, but there are rioters who, instigated from abroad and foreign TV channels, damaged public property and attacked people and police forces," noting that "these people will be referred to the courts."

"The scientific, technical, and accurate forensic report on the causes of Mahsa Amini's death will be published soon," he noted.

"You should not forget that the Internet was cut off during internal events in the United States, and the former US president's personal social media accounts were suspended under the pretext of preserving national security," he added.

The Iranian Foreign Minister also pointed to the West's double standards on human rights and women's rights, stressing that "women's rights in the Islamic Republic of Iran are given much importance," stressing that "women play an important role in various fields, such as science, medicine, education, and technology."

Commenting on the recent riots in Iran, Coveney said, "Iran's interest in the people's peaceful demands is given importance."
