Iran Strongly Rejects Hammond's Remarks about Iran's Israel Policy

TEHRAN (FNA)- Iran dismissed British Foreign Secretary Phillip Hammond's
recent remarks that Tehran has changed its policies on Israel, stressing
that the Zionist regime had no place in diplomatic talks between Tehran and
London.

"We have rejected such media hype (before) and during Mr. Hammond's trip to
Iran, we just discussed potentials of bilateral relations, fighting
extremism and terrorism, etc.," Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Marziyeh Afkham
told reporters in Tehran on Wednesday.

"There were no talks on the Zionist regime and the report that Iran has
changed its position is denied," she stressed.

After reopening the British embassy in Tehran on Sunday following four years
of strained relations between the two countries, Hammond claimed in an
interview with the British media that the current Iranian government had
displayed a more nuanced approach than its predecessor to a long-running
conflict with Israel.

In relevant remarks on Tuesday, Iranian Parliament Speaker's Adviser for
International Affairs Hossein Sheikholeslam blasted Hammond for his
interfering remarks, and said Tehran's positions against Israel have not
changed at all.

"Our positions against the usurper Zionist regime have not changed at all;
Israel should be annihilated and this is our ultimate slogan," Sheikholeslam
told reporters in Tehran.
