Iran on Friday summoned Swiss Ambassador to Tehran, Nadine Olivieri Lozano, to deliver a strong warning to the United States over any support it may offer to Israel amid the ongoing tensions in the region. Switzerland represents US interests in Iran, as the two countries do not have formal diplomatic relations.
The Iranian Foreign Ministry, in a statement, said it had expressed serious concerns about possible US military assistance to Israel, especially in efforts to counter any Iranian retaliatory action.
“Iran warned against any US military support for the Zionist regime, including efforts to obstruct Iran’s legitimate right to self-defense, and emphasized that such acts of aggression by the Zionist regime against Iran could not have taken place without US cooperation, coordination, or at the very least, a green light," the ministry said.
The Swiss envoy was further told that the US “must be held accountable for its unlawful conduct" in connection with Israel’s actions.
The summoning of the ambassador comes amid escalating tensions following Israel’s strikes on Iranian nuclear and military facilities. Iran has promised to respond to what it calls “acts of aggression", raising fears of a broader conflict in the region.
