Iran's armed forces will decide 'nature and the scale' of response to strikes, UN envoy says
Iran's ambassador to the United Nations, Amir Saeid Iravani, condemned the United States' attacks on Iran during a meeting with the UN Security Council.
Iravani said the strikes on Iran's nuclear sites used the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) as a "political weapon," calling it "aggression and unlawful action."
The ambassador warned that Iran's response would be determined by its armed forces. Iravani also denounced the assassination of Iran's General Qasem Soleimani.
"The timing, nature and the scale of Iran's proportionate response will be decided by its armed forces," Iravani said, adding, "All U.S. allegations against Iran are unfounded, with no legal basis and politically motivated."
