Iran’s Foreign Ministry said on Friday that the US must stop brutality against the oppressed people including the black ones.

In a tweet, the ministry also expressed regret over the tragic murder of black Americans saying that the voice of the protesters must be heard and Washington must do justice for every case of black murder.

Earlier on Wednesday, Iranian Foreign Ministry had tweeted, “6 years after ‘I can’t breathe’ pleas of Eric Garner, George Floyd, another black man, dies after a cruel, inhumane arrest.

George Floyd, an unarmed 46-year-old Black man, died on Monday after a white officer used his knee to pin Floyd’s neck down to the ground.

In a video of the subsequent arrest, Floyd can be seen on the ground with his hands cuffed behind while Officer Derek Chauvin presses him to the ground with his knee on Floyd’s neck.
