Amid the ongoing Israel-Iran war situation, the BJP has called the West Asia crisis the Muslim world’s internal fight for supremacy. The crisis in West Asia, including the Israel-Iran conflict, is the fallout of the Muslim world's ‘internal fight for supremacy’, said the BJP on Wednesday. While expressing hope that the issue would soon be resolved peacefully, the BJP went vocal on the issues that have been going on in Western Asia. 

As per PTI, “The West Asia crisis is nothing but a fight between Muslim countries for supremacy over one another. One pole of this fight is Saudi Arabia, the leader of the Sunni world, and the other pole is Iran, the leader of the Shia world,” BJP national spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi told reporters.

Veteran BJP leader, while referring to the Israel-Hamas war, also stated that “Iran thought that the entire Muslim world would side with it if it raised an ‘emotive issue’ against Israel, but that did not happen.”
“That is why today you are seeing that the Sunni world remained largely silent during the attack on Iran.
