Araghchi urges more OIC role in tackling shared challenges
Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has called on the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) to play a stronger role in addressing regional crises, particularly the war in Gaza.
In a Monday meeting with Mohammad Hassan Sheikholeslami, Iran’s newly appointed ambassador and permanent representative to the OIC, Araghchi stressed the importance of reinforcing cooperation among Muslim nations to safeguard the interests of the Islamic world and counter common challenges.
He pointed to the ongoing genocide in Gaza and the Israeli warmongering against countries in the region as issues requiring collective action.
Sheikholeslami presented his plans for making use of the OIC’s capacity to enhance solidarity among member states before departing for his posting.
