Aragchi: Iran not hostile towards Arab countries

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said that retaliatory strikes against US military bases in the Persian Gulf countries should not be seen as an attack on those states.

Speaking in a phone call with his Chinese counterpart Wang Yi, Araghchi noted that Tehran's actions are “a legitimate response to the actions of the source of aggression,” Caliber.Az reports per Iran’s Foreign Ministry on Telegram.

The foreign minister added that Iran is not hostile towards these countries and hopes to continue normal and good-neighbourly relations.
