Iranian Spokesman Condemns NATO Secretary-General’s Admiration for US Onslaught Against Iran’s Nuclear Sites
ranian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Esmail Baqaei took a swipe at Secretary General of NATO Mark Rutte for congratulating US President Donald Trump for Washington’s military assault against Tehran’s nuclear facilities.
“It is disgraceful, despicable and irresponsible for NATO’s SG to congratulate a ‘truly extraordinary’ criminal act of aggression against a sovereign State,” Baqaei wrote on X on Wednesday
Trump has shared a series of texts from Rutte praising his attacks on Iran.“Mr President, dear Donald, Congratulations and thank you for your decisive action in Iran, that was truly extraordinary, and something no one else dared to do. It makes us all safer,” the message reads.It comes as Tehran fired a salvo of missiles at an American air base in Qatar that serves as the forward headquarters for US Central Command (CENTCOM) in retaliation for attacks on Iran’s nuclear installations. The Islamic Republic announced that the strategic base had sustained damage despite multiple heavy layers of protection.
Baqaei said, “Who endorses an injustice lacks integrity.”“Who supports a crime is regarded as complicit,” he added.
