Iran's foreign ministry condemned the UK government's decision under its
domestic security law to designate the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC)
as a state-supported hostile threat, calling the move baseless, irresponsible
and a violation of core principles of international law, including state
sovereignty and non-interference. It accused Britain of a long history of
interference and colonial policy, said the UK acted as an accomplice and direct
participant in recent US–Israeli military aggression against Iran — a role it
said the NATO secretary-general acknowledged — and said Britain therefore lacks
moral authority to level such charges.
