Iranian FM says U.S. military threats against Iran are empty

TEHRAN, Feb. 12 (MNA) – Iran`s Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi described the U.S. threats of military aggression against the Islamic Republic as empty. However, he insisted that Tehran is ready for the worst situations. “We consider all threats and have road maps for the worst scenarios,” Salehi said during a televised program broadcast live on national television on Friday night. If the U.S. had been able to take an action against Iran, it would have already done so, Salehi said in response to U.S. officials’ remarks who have repeatedly said that Washington considers all options on Iran. The United States’ delusions of grandeur were shattered after it invaded Afghanistan and Iraq, he said, adding that Iran is fully aware that all the threats against Iran are empty. However, he said the Islamic Republic takes all threats seriously and is not “asleep”.
