Alireza Zakani has called on his counterparts in Muslim countries not to allow the issue of Palestine to be forgotten. He also stated that the Israeli regime’s attack on Gaza was “among the biggest crimes of the past century.”
Zakani blamed the United States and “a handful of European countries” for standing by the Zionist regime, saying the Palestinian cause is part of the anti-imperialist campaign.
He told his counterparts that Muslim mayors have a serious duty and responsibility to defend Gaza.
He called for using all capacities for cutting ties with the Israeli regime in all fields including economy, politics, and culture. He also demanded using the legal capacities against the Zionist regime in international courts.
Activating all the capacities of urban diplomacy to put pressure on the child-killing Zionist regime, taking measures for the reconstruction of Gaza, holding meetings between mayors in support of Palestine, supporting popular pro-Palestine rallies, naming the streets after Palestine-related concepts, building Palestine-related elements in the cities, publishing advertisements in support of Palestine and against the Zionist regime, providing cultural support, supporting the collection of relief and medical aid for the benefit of the oppressed people of Gaza, and confronting media propaganda were among his other proposals.
