Ismail Bakai, spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic, said on Monday, October 3, at his weekly press conference: "The accusation of anti-Semitism does not attach to Iran and Iranians, and has nothing to do with Iran's culture, civilization and religion." Referring to the history of anti-Semitism in Europe, Bakay said: This issue is essentially the issue of Europeans and Iran has always been one of the most lovable countries for Jews. In this meeting, Bakay claimed that Israel falsely claims to be the representative of the Jews and said that despite the conflict in the war, the holy places of the Jews in Iran, unlike in Europe, were not attacked.
