Explicit Response of Iran’s Embassy in Mexico to New U.S. and Israeli Allegations Against Tehran

In a statement responding to the new allegations by Washington and Tel Aviv against Tehran over the alleged attack plot targeting the Israeli envoy in Mexico City, the Iranian Embassy strongly emphasized that such accusations are entirely false.

According to Rokna, the statement reads: “The claim that Iran sought to assassinate the ambassador of the Israeli regime in Mexico is a major media fabrication and falsehood, the purpose of which is to damage the historic and friendly relations between the two nations. We categorically reject this accusation.”

The statement further stressed that “Iran and Mexico share common interests, and the security and dignity of Mexico are the security and dignity of Iran. We will never betray the trust placed in us by the Mexican government.”

It continued: “We will in no way tarnish the good image of Mexicans, our friends. We regard any betrayal of Mexico’s interests as a betrayal of our own, and respect for the laws of Mexico is our highest priority.”

The Iranian Embassy in Mexico went on to describe the accusation of anti-Semitism against Iran as a gross falsehood fabricated by the racist leaders of the Israeli regime.

According to the statement, “There are more than 100 synagogues in Iran, all of which are open to the public and require no guards.”

The embassy further noted: “During the Israeli aggression against Iran in June, not a single incident of verbal harassment or abuse against the large Jewish community residing in Iran was recorded.”

Mexico’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs had earlier rejected the new accusations made by the United States and the Israeli regime against the Islamic Republic of Iran, stating that it had no information regarding any alleged plot to attack the Israeli ambassador in Mexico.

According to a statement published on the official website of the Mexican Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the ministry — along with Mexico’s Ministry of the Interior — affirmed that it had received no report regarding any alleged attack against Einat Kranz-Neiger, the Israeli ambassador in Mexico, purportedly attributed to the Islamic Republic of Iran.

The statement also underscored that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs “remains committed to maintaining open communication with all diplomatic missions based in the country.”

Meanwhile, Mexico’s Ministry of the Interior, in a separate statement, announced its readiness to cooperate respectfully and in coordination with all security institutions of other countries, provided that such a request is formally submitted.

The United States and the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs, disregarding the Israeli regime’s long record of assassinating prominent Iranian figures, claimed on Friday that Iran had attempted several months ago to assassinate the Israeli ambassador in Mexico — a plan allegedly initiated at the end of 2024, continued through the first half of this year, and foiled in the summer.
