Iran Foreign Ministry spokesman BAGHAEI said US officials have invented
deceptive arguments to avoid responsibility for the humanitarian, economic and
geopolitical consequences of what he called their illegal aggression against
Iran. He accused the US of twice launching unprovoked military attacks during
diplomatic talks within nine months, assassinating Iran’s supreme leader and
senior officials, causing civilian casualties including women and children and
destroying critical infrastructure. BAGHAEI said the US is now politically and
militarily cornered and is denying responsibility while proclaiming victory to
mask its failure to achieve stated objectives.
