Tehran rejects US demands, says Washington is supporting Israel, killing Yemenis
The Iranian foreign minister said Sunday that the US has no authority or mandate to dictate Iran's foreign policy because "that era ended in 1979."
Seyed Abbas Araghchi criticized the Biden administration for providing an unprecedented $23 billion to Israel last year, alleging that more than 60,000 Palestinians have been killed and the world holds the US fully responsible.
He directly addressed Washington's demand to stop supporting the Houthis in Yemen. "End support for Israel's genocide and terrorism. Stop killing the people of Yemen," he said.
US President Donald Trump announced Saturday that the US military launched an offensive against the Houthis
He also warned Iran that "support for Houthi terrorists must end immediately" and cautioned Tehran not to threaten the US or its president because "America will hold you fully accountable, and we will not be kind about it."
