Iran foreign ministry spokesman Baghaei said any direct or indirect participation in aggression against Iran, or involvement in inhumane economic terrorism targeting Iran — including deploying naval forces or providing military and logistical support, equipment or personnel — will be regarded as hostile, illegal and equivalent to taking part in U.S. aggression. He said such acts violates United Nations Charter Article 2(4) and meets the UN General Assembly Resolution 3314 definition of aggression; invoking protection of navigation or anti-piracy operations does not change their illegal, hostile character, and bilateral agreements with the U.S. cannot justify breaching international law or joining U.S. and Israeli military action against Iran.
