Baghaei: Rubio’s Hunger Threat Exposes Intent to Commit More Crimes
TEHRAN - Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei on Saturday said U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has openly threatened to impose hunger on Iranians, describing his remarks as an indication of Washington’s intention to commit further war crimes.
Citing historian Barbara Tuchman’s The March of Folly, Baghaei said the threat reflects the U.S. leadership’s failure to learn from past mistakes and continued a decades-long policy of sanctions, threats, economic coercion and military aggression.
