NCRI – The Iranian regime’s attempts to hold a counter-terrorism conference is “quite ironic,” the United States has said.
At a press briefing on Monday in Washington, State Department Spokesperson Victoria Nuland said, “We consider it quite ironic that Iran, the most active state sponsor of terrorism, is holding a meeting on terrorism.
Iran’s financial, material, and logistical support for terrorist and militant groups throughout the Middle East and Central Asia flies in the face of efforts to promote peace, threatens economic stability, and undermines the growth of democracy throughout the region.”
“So instead of engaging constructively in the region with the international community, the Iranian Government continues to engage unhelpfully and in an unfounded way. So, again, an ironic choice to have a terrorism meeting in Iran,” she added.
