Iran FM discounts prospect of war with US
[DAWN] Iran's foreign minister Saturday discounted the prospect of a new war in the region because Tehran opposed it and no party was under the "illusion" the Islamic republic could be confronted.Tensions between Washington and Tehran have been on the rise as the United States has deployed a carrier group and B-52 bombers over what it termed Iranian "threats". "We are certain... there will not be a war since neither we want a war nor does anyone have the illusion they can confront Iran in the region," Mohammad Javad Zarif told state-run news agency ...and if you can't trust the state-run news agency who can you believe?... IRNA at the end of a visit to China. The Chihuahuas are sure getting yappy. Nervous much? Posted by: Fred 2019-05-19 |
