Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman: The US Secretary of State accuses Iran of something they are proud of: piracy! Foreign Ministry spokesman: "The US Secretary of State accused Iran of attacking ships and claimed: "We haven't seen anything like this since World War II and the era of the Pirates of the Caribbean." Meanwhile, on May 1, 2026, the President of the United States spoke proudly of seizing commercial ships and stealing their oil cargo, saying: “We are like pirates. "Actually, we're kind of pirates." The president might not be too happy to find out that his secretary of state has forgotten that boast about being a "pirate" so quickly.
