Any country directly or indirectly involved in acts of aggression or economic pressure against Iran will be considered a participant in the American aggression against the country and will be responsible for the consequences, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Bekaie warned on Thursday.
In a statement at X, Bakai opened with a Korean proverb: “A sparrow that tries to fly after a stork will eventually break its legs. ".
He warned that any involvement, including the deployment of naval forces, military and logistical support equipment or personnel, would constitute a hostile and illegal act amounting to participation in American aggression against Iran.
Bekai claimed that such actions would violate Article 2(4) of the United Nations Charter and fall under the definition of an act of aggression according to UN General Assembly Resolution 3,314.
"Our message is unequivocal: no agreement or bilateral commitment with the US can be a legitimate reason for violating a country's obligations under international law or for participating in the American-Israeli military aggression against Iran," he added.
He concluded by warning that any country that participates in such actions, in any form, will bear full responsibility for the consequences.
