Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi firmly rejected warnings from US President Donald Trump against retaliating to the recent US and Israeli military operations, asserting that the country’s right to self-defence has “no limit.”
Speaking to ABC News, Araghchi said, “Nobody can tell us that you don’t have any right to defend yourselves. We are defending ourselves whatever it takes, and we see no limit for ourselves to defend our people, to protect our people.”
He contrasted Iran’s actions with those of the United States, stating, “What the United States is doing is an act of aggression. What we are doing is the act of self-defence. There are huge differences between these two.”
