On Friday, a book of condolences was opened at Tehran's diplomatic headquarters in Quito, where Ecuadorians and representatives of other countries expressed their messages of support for the Persian state after the attack in the city of Kerman during a ceremony commemorating the fourth anniversary of the attack. The assassination of General Qassem Soleimani.
Among those who went to the Iranian embassy were the head of the Cuban mission in Ecuador, Basilio Gutierrez; Citizen Revolution Council member Jose Agualsaca; and members of social groups such as the Coordinator of Peace, Sovereignty, Integration and Non-Interference.
The explosions occurred on January 3 on the road leading to the cemetery where General Soleimani, the former commander of the Quds Force of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, is buried.
This event caused an international uproar and statements from various governments, however, to date, the Ecuadorian executive has not commented publicly on the event.
Since Wednesday marks the fourth anniversary of Soleimani’s assassination, Ambassador Babarga described him as “a hero and martyr in the war against terrorism.”
The diplomat said that the United States believed that with its physical disappearance it would weaken the resistance movement against intervention, but it fertilized the resistance and we can see it today in the people of Gaza in light of the bombing and despicable crimes committed by the Zionist regime.
