The US and the West have been obstructing the judicial case pertaining to General Qassem Soleimani's martyrdom, according to Iran's Foreign Minister on Sunday.

In a TV interview commemorating Lieutenant General Qassem Soleimani's third martyrdom anniversary, Hossein Amir-Abdollahian noted that "unfortunately, both the Americans and some other western countries are creating obstacles in the way of judiciary procedure, but the Islamic Republic of Iran, too, is not hand-tied."

Amir-Abdollahian noted that Iran pursued the legal judicial process in which it made clear, through a letter, that the US government is responsible for the assassination of Soleimani.

Moreover, the Iranian official highlighted that the Foreign Ministry has appointed lawyer Abbas-Ali Kadkhodaie, as well as another highly competent and knowledgeable ambassador as part of the committee established by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs under the leadership of Amir-Abdollahian.

Additionally, the Foreign Minister explained that in "parallel with those moves, we have also taken other steps, such as the names of 60 concerned US officials of that time who were involved in that assassination, in the Islamic Republic of Iran's Black List of Terrorists, and in recent Vienna negotiations to terminate the sanctions, too, one of the US demands was eliminating those 60 people from that list."

According to Amir-Abdollahian, the Americans also urged the mediators during the JCPOA talks to inform the Iranian officials that they all had bodyguards and escorts to safeguard their security, which comes at a considerable financial expense, particularly in their trips across the world.

Khamenei: Soleimani brought new life to Resistance front

During a meeting with the family of martyr Soleimani and the officials of the General Soleimani Commemoration Ceremonies, Iranian leader Sayyed Ali Khamenei considered that breathing a new spirit into the Resistance front was an outstanding and essential part of Soleimani’s endeavors.

The Iranian leader explained that "by strengthening the physical, spiritual and mental aspects of the Resistance, the General preserved, equipped and revived this everlasting and growing phenomenon against the Zionist regime and the influence of the US and other arrogant countries."

Khamenei pointed out that the testimony of Hezbollah Secretary-General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah about General Soleimani’s struggles is a great means for understanding the importance of the martyr's work in reviving the Resistance.

Khamenei also pointed to the progress that Palestinians have made in confronting the Israeli occupation, as well as the achievements of the Resistance in Iraq, Syria, and Yemen.

"General Soleimani used the experience that he had attained during the period of the Holy Defense as well as the advice of his comrades to strengthen the Resistance by relying on the internal capacities of these same countries," he highlighted.

The Iranian leader praised Soleimani’s accomplishments and referred to the manner in which the martyr uprooted the terrorist acts of ISIS, pointing out that General Soleimani had done very well in that test.
