Spotlight on Iran (June 5-13, 2024)

Ali Bagheri-Kani, acting Iranian foreign minister, continued to promote Iran’s political-diplomatic campaign in the region after Foreign Minister Abdollahian’s demise in the crash of President Raisi’s helicopter last month. Bagheri participated in a special meeting of the foreign ministers of developing countries (D-8) in Istanbul and called for measures against Israel against the background of the war in the Gaza Strip. He warned Israel from launching an all-out confrontation against Hezbollah.
