Iran's Ministry of Foreign Affairs: The US and Israel are proud to have assassinated Iranian citizens, leaders, and important people, while putting themselves in the position of victims and oppressors. This is clearly part of a psychological war and a war of public opinion; no one can be fooled by these tricks. Attention must be paid to the tricks and pathetic acts played by the US and Israel — such as complaining that Iranians are demanding revenge at rallies and funerals. Their complaints are extremely shameless. Based on our own interests, we decided to use diplomatic tools to protect our national interests and national security, knowing that the US is a party to the Treaty. We have carried out this process with a clear understanding and high level of vigilance, and will continue to do so in the future. If the US believes that Iran is helpless in the face of the current situation, or that it will enter a certain process without understanding, that is incorrect.
