Top Iranian General Tells EU to ‘Buy Coal’
TEHRAN -- A top Iranian general sanctioned by the European Union for allegedly supplying Russia with drones has mocked the bloc by telling them to “buy coal” for winter with his assets.
“They are allowed to identify and confiscate all the properties and assets of Major General Muhammad Hussein Baqeri in banks around the world and use them to buy coal for European citizens, a difficult winter is ahead,” he said in a message posted by local media late Sunday.
