Iran: Any US Attack including limited strikes Would Be ‘Act of Aggression’
Share:

Iran said on Monday that any attack by the United States, including limited strikes, would be an “act of aggression” that would precipitate a response, after US President Donald Trump said he was considering a limited strike on Iran.

“I think there is no limited strike,” Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baqaei said at a briefing in Tehran. “An act of aggression would be regarded as an act of aggression. Period. And any state would react to an act of aggression as part of its inherent right of self-defense ferociously so that’s what we would do.”

Trump said on Friday he was considering a limited strike if Tehran did not reach a deal with the US. (AFP)
