Iranian Foreign Minister Zarif's Relationship with IRGC Gen. Soleimani
(Israel Hayom) Dr. Reza Parchizadeh - Mohammad Javad Zarif, the foreign minister of the Islamist regime in Iran, runs an extended overseas apparatus that is focused on lowering the defenses of the democratic world with sleek smiles and false narratives. He was added to the U.S. sanctions list a year ago. Recently, during a Majlis (parliament) hearing, Zarif spoke of Revolutionary Guard Corps Maj.-Gen. Qassem Soleimani, who was killed in a U.S. drone strike on January 3, 2020. "Martyr Soleimani and I would hold a meeting every week and coordinate. Whatever we did regarding regional affairs was in coordination. Those who know Martyr Soleimani, those who consorted with Martyr Soleimani, those who hang around [Hizbullah leader] Seyed Hassan Nasrallah and the Resistance in Iraq, Lebanon, and Palestine know the depth of our relationship." According to Zarif himself, U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo pointed out that Zarif and Soleimani were fully coordinated when the regime was killing Americans.
