Normalization of ties with Israel marks second Nakba Day

The Iranian parliament speaker says betraying rulers in the region are accomplices to all crimes committed by the Zionist regime.

Speaker of the Iranian Parliament Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf lashed out at the treacherous Arab rulers who have normalized relations with the Zionist regime, saying the move has marked a second Nakba Day.

In a statement released on Thursday, Qalibaf denounced the recent decision by the UAE and Bahrain to establish ties with Israel as a formalization of years of normal and friendly relationship with the Zionist regime and an outcome of years of hostility that rulers of certain Arab states have shown to the people of Palestine.

The treacherous rulers in the region have marked the second Nakba Day and would be officially an accomplice in all crimes committed by the criminal Zionists from now on, he added.

Last week, Bahrain became the fourth Arab government to reach a deal with Zionist regime after Egypt, Jordan and the UAE.
