Iran warns US against tanker chase
US, WASHINGTON (ORDO NEWS) — Deputy Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi summoned the Ambassador of Switzerland, who also represents US interests in the republic. A conversation took place between diplomats. Araghchi warned the White House against the persecution of Iranian tankers bound for Venezuela.
At the same time, Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif sent a letter to UN Secretary General Anthony Gutterish, in which he indicated that the United States should respect international law. Threats to the United States – this is maritime piracy, America is dangerous for the region. And in which case, Tehran will react symmetrically.
