Quito, January 3 (Prensa Latina) The Ecuadorian Association of Friendship with the Sahrawi People (Aeaps) condemned today the terrorist attack in the Iranian city of Kerman during the ceremony commemorating the fourth anniversary of the assassination of General Qassem Soleimani.
In a letter to the Iranian ambassador in Quito, Ahmad Pabarja, the Aeaps collective and its coordinator Pablo de la Vega reiterate that these events “of unusual and unjustified violence” warn against the real interests of the United States, Israel and the monarchical Regime. .
In this way, “they intend to maintain their control and geopolitical dominance in Africa, the Middle East and Asia through death, pain, suffering and humiliation to the peoples who are convinced that sooner rather than later they will have their full independence and sovereignty will achieve.” “, it says in the text of the letter.
According to press reports, the detonations occurred near the Kerman Martyrs' Cemetery, where thousands of people gathered to commemorate the physical disappearance of the senior officer and commander of the Quds Force of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.
One of the explosions occurred in January 2020, 700 meters from the grave of the aforementioned general, the victim of a US Air Force drone strike in Iraq.
The Ecuadorian government has not yet commented on the incident.
As this Wednesday marks the fourth anniversary of Soleimani's assassination, Ambassador Pabarja remembered him as a “hero and martyr in the fight against terrorism.”
The United States thought that with their physical disappearance the resistance movement against interventionism would be weakened, but they fertilized the resistance and we can see it today in the people of Gaza under the bombings and heinous crimes of the Zionist regime, the diplomat said.
