[Marxistindia] Killing of Iranian General Condemned

Press Statement
 
The Polit Bureau of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) has issued the
following statement:
 
Killing of Iranian General Condemned
 
The Polit Bureau of the CPI(M) strongly condemns the killing of Qassem
Soleimani, Iran's top General of the armed forces (the Quds) by the United
States through a drone strike outside Baghdad airport.
 
This assassination of the head of the armed forces of a sovereign country is
an act of international banditry by the Trump administration. It is going to
have incalculable consequences for West Asia and the Gulf region. The United
States will be responsible for any conflict and violence that ensues.
 
It is unfortunate that the Modi government has merely "noted that a senior
Iranian leader has been killed by the US", without even disapproving this
heinous act. It shows how the government has become a tame ally of the
United States.
