American National Radio: What is your opinion about the view of the Islamic Republic of Iran regarding the conflict between Israel and Palestine and its expansion? Honorable Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic of Iran: We are not seeking to expand the scope of the conflict, but we encourage others to move towards stopping war crimes as soon as possible. But the situation is complicated. It is difficult for our region to bear the fact that more than seven thousand people have been killed in the bombardment and attacks of the Zionist regime. The picture we see in the region is that the region has turned into a powder keg due to the continuing crimes of the Israeli regime. American National Radio: Do you encourage your allies to exercise restraint? Honorable Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic of Iran: They make their own decisions. There is a possibility of any decision from them at any moment. But we encourage America to stop its absolute support for the Israeli regime. According to the information we have in the region, the security and political system of Israel has completely collapsed. Israeli citizens have no trust in Netanyahu and their security system. Now only the Israeli war machine is working. Their command and management is with America. Of course, if I want to be fair, Netanyahu also has a share. Because if the attacks and war stop, it will fall in less than two days. American National Radio: You said on October 16 that if the attacks do not stop, we will witness a series of preemptive attacks by other resistance groups, and now we see these happening on the border between Israel and Lebanon. Do you mean the attacks that are happening now? Honorable Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic of Iran: Two weeks ago, during my trip to the region, I held consultations with the leaders of some countries in the region. Of course, I also talked with the leaders of the resistance Lebanon and Palestine. I told my opinion about their words and plans. Their hand is on the trigger. Much stronger and deeper and stronger than what we have seen so far. Therefore, I think that if this case continues, the killing of women, children and civilians in Gaza and the West Bank is possible. Of course, they understand very well that if the situation in Gaza changes, Israel will come to them tomorrow. Therefore, for their safety, they have their own calculations and make their own decisions. I hope that before it is too late, international and political action will help to immediately stop attacks on civilians in Gaza and send humanitarian aid to Gaza. American National Radio: Hamas attacked on October 7th and killed many civilians. The spokesperson of Hamas confirmed in a conversation with the media that it has benefited from Iran's support and assistance. What kind of support and help did Iran give to Hamas and this attack? Honorable Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic of Iran: In our opinion, Hamas is a Palestinian liberation movement. They fight the occupier. I said in my speech at the UN General Assembly that they act according to international laws. Of course, Iran has never approved the killing of civilians, but we give political support to the actions of liberation movements to liberate their occupied land. Therefore, our support is political. Today they have enough missiles, rockets, drones and facilities and they can easily get them from everywhere. American National Radio: So you deny that you taught them? Did you coordinate or did you give them weapons? Honorable Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic of Iran: I am talking about the current situation. Now they themselves have all the facilities, they have their own instructors to train, and that's why they decided to do the operation Al-ghsa Storm  themselves.
