Abbas Araghchi said that the killing of politicians by the US and Israel will not bring down the government
The killing of senior Iranian officials by the US and Israel will not cripple the government, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has said.
Araghchi made his comments shortly after Iran confirmed that Ali Larijani, the country's security chief and one of its most powerful politicians, was killed in an airstrike in a Tehran suburb on Tuesday.
"I do not know why the Americans and the Israelis still have not understood this point: The Islamic Republic of Iran has a strong political structure with established political, economic, and social institutions," Araghchi told Al Jazeera.
"The presence or absence of a single individual does not affect this structure," he added.
"Of course, individuals are influential, and each person plays their - some better, some worse, some less - but what matters is that the political system in Iran is a very solid structure," the diplomat said.
