Bagheri-Kani made the remarks on Thursday in a speech before senior officials and high-ranking security representatives from over 120 countries at the 14th International Meeting of High-Ranking Security Officials in Moscow, Russia.

He emphasized, “Today, West Asia — particularly the Persian Gulf region — needs a new security equation; an equation that can dry up the root causes of crisis and prevent the recurrence of war and instability.”

The senior Iranian security official added, “The Islamic Republic of Iran believes that by strengthening cooperation and simultaneously focusing on security and development, the legitimate interests of all countries can be secured, and a new and just order can be established — one based on the principles of endogenous security, indivisibility, and independence from non-indigenous and extra-regional forces.”

He further noted, “Following the doctrine of the martyred Leader Imam Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei and his successor, and emphasizing the three principles of ‘unity, independence, and resistance’, the Islamic Republic of Iran aims to create a fair order that rejects hegemony and domination, while fostering trust and collaboration.”

“The Islamic Republic of Iran is prepared to engage in constructive dialogue and sustainable cooperation with all responsible countries in the region to achieve such an order,” he stressed.

‘Pharaoh Accords’ fuel insecurity in region

Referring to the US initiative known as the “Abraham Accords” aimed at normalizing relations between regional countries and the Israeli regime, Bagheri-Kani said the true name of this plan should be the “Pharaoh Accords.” He emphasized that this plan has led to increased insecurity and instability in the region.

He noted that the crisis and insecurity in West Asia have deep-rooted causes, but US and Israeli regimes are misrepresenting the origins of the crisis.

The senior Iranian security official asserted that, through deceit, the US and Israel have tried to remove the cause of Palestine and the rights of its oppressed people from the regional agenda. They mistakenly believe that by normalizing relations with some countries, the Palestinian issue will be forgotten, he added.

Bagheri-Kani underlined, “In practice, by proposing the so-called Abraham Accords, they have challenged the security of the region, because the goal of such accords is not normalization, but the enslavement of nations.”
