Shafaq News – Tehran
Iran’s Foreign Ministry on Monday released
its observations and reservations regarding the final communiqué of the
extraordinary Arab–Islamic summit on Israel’s military actions against Qatar,
held in Doha on September 15, 2025.
In its statement, Tehran reaffirmed its “firm
and unwavering” support for the Palestinian people’s right to
self-determination and strongly condemned what it described as Israel’s “brutal
crimes” against Palestinians. The ministry stressed that Iran’s commitment to
the Palestinian cause “will not diminish under any circumstances.”
Opposition to the Two-State Solution
Addressing references in the summit
communiqué to peace initiatives, including the New York Declaration on a
two-state solution and the Arab Peace Initiative, Iran rejected the concept
outright. It argued that the “so-called two-state solution” cannot resolve the
Palestinian question. Instead, Tehran reiterated its position that the only
lasting solution is the establishment of a single democratic state through a
referendum involving all Palestinians, both inside and outside the occupied
territories.
Iran emphasized that its agreement to the
communiqué should not be interpreted as either explicit or implicit recognition
of Israel.
Palestinian Rights and Resistance
The statement further underlined that
Palestinians, like all peoples seeking peace, have the right to use “all
necessary means” to achieve self-determination and end foreign colonial
occupation. Citing international law, Tehran said this right must not be
restricted, adding that it supports any Palestinian national unity agreement
endorsed by the Palestinian people themselves.
Criticism of US Role
While praising Qatar and Egypt for their
mediation efforts toward an immediate ceasefire and alleviation of humanitarian
suffering in Gaza, Iran accused the United States of sustaining and supporting
Israeli military actions. “The United States cannot be regarded as a reliable
or impartial party in advancing a just and lasting peace,” the ministry said.
Tehran requested that its reservations be
formally recorded in the summit’s final report.
