Member of the Iranian Parliament's National Security and Foreign Policy Committee, Aladdin Boroujerdi said that “Saudi Arabia is not in the position to speak against Iran.”

Boroujerdi’s comments came as he responded to the Saudi adding of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps [IRGC] to its terrorism list on Tuesday for financial and material support to what they describe as Iran’s “terrorist activities.”

Among the names added to the list is also Commander of the IRGC’s al-Quds Force Maj. Gen. Qassem Soleimani.

In response, Boroujerdi said Soleimani is the Islamic Republic's "national pride,” and that his war on terrorism has made a great influence in the entire region.

The MP further stressed that Saudi Arabia is the number one sponsor of terrorism, and that it is trying to deviate the global public opinion through such claims, referring to the recent murder of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi in Istanbul.

He also urged that Saudi Arabia be tried at the International Criminal Court for its crimes.
