“The closure of Iran's Consulates in Germany is a sanction against Iranians residing in that country -most of whom possess German citizenship as well,” Araqchi said in a post on his X account on Friday.
“In support of a terrorist who took 14 innocent lives and injured more than 200 others, the German government is sanctioning tens of thousands of other Iranians holding German passport. Anyone can see the wisdom in this decision,” he said sarcastically, pointing to Germany’s condemnation of the execution of Jamshid Sharmahd in Iran, a terrorist group ringleader.
“I assure my Iranian compatriots living in Germany that we are doing our utmost to compensate for this inconvenience by strengthening the consular sections of our embassy in Berlin and other nearby diplomatic missions,” Araqchi added.
“Meanwhile, behold the terrorist criminal that German authorities sought to protect,” the minister said.
