BAKU, Azerbaijan, February 1. I want the US
side to know that if war breaks out this time, it will be a
regional war, said Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Seyyed Ali
Khamenei, while receiving a group of Iranian citizens in Tehran
today on the occasion of the start of the 47th anniversary of the
Islamic Revolution in Iran, Trend reports.
According to him, the US side sometimes talks about war, about
its arrival with planes and other means, and this is not a new
issue.
Khamenei said that the US side has repeatedly expressed the view
that all options are on the table. And when we say all choices, we
mean the choice of war.
The Supreme Leader of Iran noted that the Iranian side is not
afraid of such ideas, the Iranian side is not the party that
started the war and does not want to oppress anyone or attack any
country.
The US launched military air strikes on Iran's nuclear
facilities in June last year. The strikes reportedly destroyed
Iran's nuclear facilities. In response, Iran announced that it had
attacked a US military base in Qatar.
