Iran-Saudi Arabia-Mottaki
Iranian Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki said on Sunday that the current developments in Gaza Strip are the results of secret agreements made in Annapolis conference.

Addressing an extraordinary meeting of the foreign ministers of the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC) in Jeddah on Sunday, he said the claims raised by US President George W. Bush in Annapolis conference about formation of a Jewish country indicated they had made a secret agreement to expel Muslims and Christians from Palestine.

Some 150 Palestinians have been massacred since the end of Annapolis conference, he pointed out.

After Annapolis conference, the Zionist regime closed all border crossings and cut humanitarian aid to people besides launching a full scale land and air attack on people in Gaza, Mottaki said.

The atrocities of the Zionist regime have claimed lives of over 5,000 Palestinians in the past eight years, he said.

Supporting the Zionist regime is now very costly and they are now witnessing its downfall after its defeat in the 33-day war in Lebanon, he said.

Referring to the promises and slogans of the US presidential nominees, he said making a drastic change in US policy in the Middle East region should top the agenda of the next US president.

Islamic countries should abide by their pledges to boycott the Zionist regime, Mottaki underlined.

The United Nations should pay due attention to current developments in Gaza Strip and fulfill its duty to prevent the atrocities of the Zionist regime, Mottaki said.
