Iran’s foreign ministry on Monday condemned the Trump administration’s deadly airstrikes in Iraq and Syria over the weekend as a “clear example of terrorism” and demanded that the U.S. end its occupation of the region.
“We strongly condemn this aggression on Iraqi soil,” Abbas Mousavi, a spokesperson for the Iranian foreign ministry, said in a statement. “The U.S. has to respect the territorial integrity and independence of Iraq and to stop interfering in Iraqi internal affairs.”
