Tehran has categorically dismissed the rumors by American media about the Islamic Republic’s plan to “carry out an assassination plot” as revenge for the assassination of its top anti-terror General, Qassem Soleimani.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Foreign Ministry Spokesman Saeed Khatibzadeh deplored such unfounded claims, saying, \u201cWe suggest the Americans prevent worn-out tricks to create propaganda against the Islamic Republic of Iran.\u201d<\/p>\n

Noting that “such baseless claims are part of the Trump administration’s counter-intelligence campaign against Iran,” he said,\u00a0\u201cThe US regime’s reliance on anti-Iranian accusations and lies in on the threshold of the presidential election, and at the same, its bullying to the UN Security Council to increase pressure on the Iranian people, was predictable.\u201d<\/p>\n

Khatibzadeh stressed, \u201cThe recent claim, which is likely to continue in the future, will certainly be ineffective and will add to Washington’s long list of failures against the Islamic Republic of Iran.\u201d<\/p>\n

He reiterated Iran\u2019s \u201ccontinued adherence to the principles and customs of international diplomacy, as a responsible member of the international community.\u201d<\/p>\n

The spokesman noted that it is, in fact, the United States and the current regime in the White House, that has violated numerous internationally-accepted agreements and norms in recent years.<\/p>\n

\u201cSuch violations include undermining the territorial integrity of other countries, withdrawal from international agreements, and dozens of assassination plots and military interventions and espionages, including the cowardly assassination of General Soleimani,\u201d Khatibzadeh added.<\/p>\n

He underlined that the Islamic Republic of Iran, as it has repeatedly stated, \u201cwill continue the pursuit of the cowardly assassination of General Soleimani at all legal international levels and will neither forgive nor forget this terrorist act.\u201d<\/p>\n

An American media outlet has claimed Iran is weighing the possibility of carrying out an assassination plot as revenge for the assassination of its anti-terror commander, Lieutenant General Qassem Soleimani.<\/p>\n

General Soleimani, the commander of the Quds Force of Iran\u2019s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC), and Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, the second-in-command of Iraq’s Popular Mobilization Units (PMU), were killed in US airstrikes at Baghdad\u2019s international airport on January 3.<\/p>\n

A few days later, Iran responded to the assassination, striking the American airbase of Ain al-Assad in Anbar province in western Iraq and another in Erbil, the capital of Iraq’s semi-autonomous Kurdistan region.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
