Argentina's Ministry of Foreign Affairs categorically rejected Iran's decision to include its navy and air force in the list of "assassination organizations".
In a statement posted on the X social network on November 11, this ministry described this action as "absolutely baseless and an unacceptable accusation" against the militant armed forces of this country.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Argentina announced that the Navy and Air Force of this country are legally established institutions, subject to the Constitution, and their mission is to protect the national sovereignty of Argentina.
The Iranian Foreign Ministry announced yesterday that it considers the Argentine Navy and Air Force "assassination organizations" in response to the "assassination" announced by the government of that country.
Iran's Foreign Ministry said in statements that this decision was made based on the "Reciprocal Action" law approved in 2018. In April of this year, the Argentine government placed the Revolutionary Guards on the list of assassination organizations.
