Tehran. Iran has warned America that if US military bases located in Europe or any other remote region of the world are used to attack Iran, they could also be targeted. Mohsen Rezaei, Secretary General of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, said on Wednesday that Tehran's retaliatory action would not be limited to US military bases in the Middle East.
In an interview, Rezai said that if American planes fly from any military base and bomb Iran, then those bases will also be targeted, even if they are located in European countries or any other remote area. He said Iran could also attack military targets that the US considers beyond the reach of its missiles.
Rezaei warned that Iran could also target islands that the US believes are beyond the reach of its missiles.
The struggle started from 28th February
It is noteworthy that this conflict started on February 28 after the attacks on Iran by America and Israel. In response, Iran launched missile and drone attacks in countries where US military bases are present. Regional tensions were further heightened by the involvement of Iran-backed armed groups operating in Lebanon, Yemen and Iraq in this conflict.
Refused to negotiate with America
Amid ongoing diplomatic efforts mediated by Qatar and Pakistan, Rezai said that Iran is not currently having any direct talks with the US. He said, “I want to clarify that at this time we are not in any talks with America. At present no talks are going on between the two countries.”
Rezaei also rejected claims of talks between the US and Iran in Qatar.
