  • Iran condemns US official’s threat of attacking nuclear facilities

IRAN’S Foreign Ministry Spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei on Monday condemned recent remarks by a White House official about the possibility of the United States hitting Iranian nuclear facilities, calling them “a threat against international peace and security”.
He made the remarks at a weekly press conference in Tehran while reacting to a report published by Axios on Thursday, which revealed that US National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan had presented US President Joe Biden with options for a potential US attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities, should the Iranians move towards a nuclear weapon before 20 January 2025.
Baghaei said Sullivan’s remarks were threats against another country’s “peaceful” nuclear facilities. He said that Iran and its people would act decisively and use all available tools to defend their national sovereignty, territorial integrity, and dignity. — Xinhua
