Bagai: Excuses and misleading headlines cannot change the illegal and hostile nature of any assistance or participation in the act of military aggression or sanctions by the United States.
In response to reports about the possibility that certain countries will give in to American pressure to intervene in regional developments and the Strait of Hormuz, Foreign Ministry spokesman Ismail Baka'i wrote on Channel X:
🔹 "A sparrow flying after a skull will break its legs. "Any direct or indirect participation in acts of aggression or economic destruction against Iran, such as the deployment of naval units or equipment and support forces, will be considered an illegal act of hostility, and participation in American military aggression and economic assassination, which is not only contrary to Article 2, paragraph 4 of the UN Charter, but is also considered an act of aggression according to UN General Assembly Resolution 3314.
🔹The use of misleading titles such as "protection of shipping" or "dealing with piracy" does not change its illegal and hostile nature. Our message is clear: there is no bilateral agreement with the United States that authorizes the violation of a country's international legal obligations and participation in military aggression against Iran. Any participant in the illegal and aggressive actions of the United States will hold participants accountable for the results and outcomes.
