Spokesman raps Pompeos anti-Iran comments

Spokesman raps Pompeos anti-Iran comments
Tasnim Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Saeed Khatibzadeh dismissed the US state secretarys tweets on Irans internal affairs as a psychotic reaction to Washingtons successive defeats.

In a statement on Wednesday, the spokesman described Mike Pompeos recent tweets about Irans internal issues, which were filled with anger at Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif, as a psychotic reaction caused by disappointment and depression following the US Department of States successive defeats and as an attempt to cover up those failures.

Unfortunately, the US state secretary, who is witnessing the failure of the policy of maximum pressure and unilateralism on Iran more and more, is attempting desperately to retrieve part of the lost prestige of Trumps regime by claiming to advocate human rights, he said.

The spokesman underlined that the US government itself has the darkest human rights record as there is no single day without protests from the American people against violence, discrimination and racism.

In spite of the dire situation inside the US, Mr Pompeo, who has received training in fabrication, deception and lying at the CIA, is seeking to divert the public opinions attention based on the bigger the lie, the more it will be believed, Khatibzadeh added.

His comments came after Pompeo slammed the execution of Iranian convict Navid Afkari as a despicable act, calling for consequences for the execution.

The US state secretary claimed that world leaders have taken the first step to counter Iran and have cancelled Zarifs European visits.

Zarif was due to visit Germany this week, but cancelled his visit for logistical problems.
