Iran’s London Embassy Retorts to Trump with List of US ‘Atrocities’
Theo en.irna.ir
Iran’s embassy in London has published a list of alleged U.S. crimes, from the Vietnam War to Middle East interventions, in response to former President Donald Trump’s recent criticisms of Tehran. The move is seen as an open diplomatic effort to sway public opinion.
Iran’s embassy in London has struck back at former U.S. President Donald Trump by releasing a list of what it calls American atrocities committed over decades.
The catalog, posted on the embassy’s official social media account, enumerates events ranging from the Vietnam War to military interventions in the Middle East and unilateral sanctions affecting civilians. Tehran contends these actions constitute war crimes and violations of international law.
The move follows repeated criticism by Trump of the Iranian government, especially regarding its nuclear program and regional military activities. The former president has threatened additional sanctions unless Iran alters its foreign policy.
Analysts view the diplomatic broadside as a public-relations campaign to shift opinion and tarnish Washington’s reputation. No official response from Trump or U.S. diplomatic offices has been issued.
