India tells Iran’s Khamenei to 'look at own record' over comments on Muslims suffering
India’s Ministry of External Affairs condemned Iran's Supreme Leader Khamenei’s remarks on the treatment of Muslims.
India hit back at Iran on Monday over comments made by Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei about the South Asian country’s alleged mistreatment of its Muslim minority.
In a brief post to X on Monday, Khamenei said, “We cannot consider ourselves to be Muslims if we are oblivious to the suffering that a Muslim is enduring in #Myanmar, #Gaza, #India, or any other place.”
Hours later, the Indian Ministry of External Affairs issued a statement where it “strongly deplored” Khamenei’s remarks, describing them as “misinformed and unacceptable.”
“Countries commenting on minorities are advised to look at their own record before making any observations about others,” the statement continued.
