Iran defines Argentina's navy and air force as terrorist organizations.
Iran's foreign ministry has declared Argentina's navy and air force terrorist organizations, citing the principle of reciprocity after Buenos Aires designated the Revolutionary Guards - a core branch of Iran's official armed forces - as a terrorist entity.
The ministry said the move is based on Iran's 2019 law on "reciprocal action against the US designation of the IRGC as a terrorist organization," which states that any country that follows or supports the US decision is subject to reciprocal measures.
Tehran said that Argentina bears full responsibility for all the consequences arising from its hostile action, which it says violates fundamental principles of international law.
