Iran a ‘clear danger to Middle East,’ says Foreign Ministry after Raisi speech

Tehran finances terrorism, poses a global threat and must never be allowed to obtain nuclear weapons, the Foreign Ministry said in response to the speech of new Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi to the United Nations Geberal Assembly (UNGA) on Tuesday.
“Raisi continues to fool the international community in a speech filled with lies and cynicism,” the Foreign Ministry said after Raisi spoke by video at the opening session of the annual UNGA gathering.
“Iran’s ayatollah regime constitutes a clear and immediate threat to the Middle East and world peace,” it added.
