The US' act of international terrorism, targeting & assassinating General Soleimani””THE most effective force fighting Daesh (ISIS), Al Nusrah, Al Qaeda et al””is extremely dangerous & a foolish escalation.
The US bears responsibility for all consequences of its rogue adventurism. — Javad Zarif (@JZarif) January 3, 2020
