TEHRAN, Dec. 2 (Xinhua) — Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei said on Monday that the United States has become the "biggest threat" to international peace and security due to its current behavior toward other countries.
Speaking at a weekly press conference here, the diplomat criticised the administration of US President Donald Trump for hostile actions against states such as Venezuela and support for Israeli operations in West Asia.
"In all parts of the world, we see actions based on threats and naked force from the United States. In the Western Hemisphere, US officials frequently repeat threats against Venezuela, Cuba, Nicaragua, and even Brazil and Mexico," he said.
E. Bagai also criticized the US statement that Venezuelan airspace should be considered closed, calling it an “unprecedented step” that violates international standards and regulations, including those governing aviation safety.
As another example of Washington's hostile approach, the diplomat cited D. Trump's threats against African countries, including his words about preventing South Africa from participating in the G20 summit next year.
“Total” American support for Israel’s actions in West Asia has effectively made the United States complicit in Israel’s “genocide and violation of the national sovereignty and territorial integrity of countries in the region,” added E. Bagai.
He also criticized the United States for imposing new immigration restrictions on citizens of some countries, saying the policy reflected the "racism" of the American government.
D. Trump announced Thursday his intention to permanently halt immigration from what he called "Third World countries" and threatened to reverse immigration decisions made under his predecessor, Joseph Biden. –0–
