PNN – The English publication “Independent” wrote about the unusual reaction and silence of the Foreign Ministry and the US White House regarding the martyrdom of Iranian President Ayatollah Seyed Ebrahim Raisi and his accompanying delegation: The Biden government did not publish a statement in this regard until Monday noon, and critics of the American government believe that this silence shows the wider inability of the White House to draw a clear policy and vision for the future of the Middle East.
According to the report of Pakistan News Network, the United States of America officially condoled the martyrdom of President Ayatollah Raisi and Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir Abdullahian and their companions.
US State Department spokesman Matthew Miller announced in a statement on Monday local time: The United States of America officially condoles the death of Iranian President Ebrahim Raeesi, Foreign Minister Amir Abdullahian and other members of their delegations in the helicopter crash in the northwest of this country.
At the same time, the spokesperson of the US Foreign Ministry repeated the claim of supporting the Iranian people and added: “As Iran elects a new president, we reiterate our support for the Iranian people and their struggle for human rights and fundamental freedoms.”
