The member the Representatives of Guardianship Fraction in the Islamic Consultative Assembly said that the transferal of the embassy of the United States in the illegal Zionist entity from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem al-Quds on May 14th prompted the anger of the people of world and said, “This action by the United States has been marked by consensus among the Islamic world and non-Islamic countries against Israel and the United States.”
