Baghaei: U.S. Sanctions Justice Seekers, Shields Genocide Suspects

According to Khabaronline, an Iranian news agency, In a post on the social media platform X, Esmail Baghaei pointed to continued U.S. support for what he described as Israel’s impunity over grave crimes committed in the occupied Palestinian territories and the wider region. He said that while individuals accused of war crimes and genocide continue to act freely, the U.S. Department of State has intensified a campaign of intimidation and sanctions against those attempting to bring these individuals to justice through international legal mechanisms.

According to Baghaei, this approach effectively grants open and unjustified immunity to individuals under pursuit. He described the policy as “a clear manifestation of moral decay,” warning that such actions undermine international justice and further erode the credibility of U.S. claims regarding human rights and the rule of law.
