Tehran – Iran's Majlis Speaker Ali Larijani has pledged the country's all-out support for Palestinians, describing “resistance” as the sole path for Palestine's liberation.

According to Press TV, Larijani said at a Saturday meeting in the Iranian capital city, Tehran, with a group of Palestinians, recently released from Israeli prisons “The principle policy of the Islamic Republic of Iran is defending the rights of the oppressed people of Palestine in all arenas, and to that end, it spares no effort to help the Palestinian nation.”

The visiting Palestinian figures were among the 477 Palestinian prisoners who were released from the Israeli prisons in October in exchange for a captured Israeli soldier.

Larijani insisted that defending the rights of the “oppressed Palestinian people” and liberating the occupied lands of Palestine are the great responsibility of all “freedom-seekers” in the world.

The senior Iranian lawmaker lauded the Palestinians' struggles against the Israeli occupation, adding “the Palestine cause” is a “human aspiration” and “resistance” is the “only path” that leads the Palestinian nation to the achievement of their goals.

The Palestinian guests at the meeting recounted the Zionist regime’s inhumane treatments of Palestinian detainees at the its prisons and noted that the experience promoted their realization that Israel is a fragile regime.
