Asked about US President Donald Trump's descriptions of Iran, which he described in a recent tweet as a state sponsoring terrorism, Zarif referred to the fact that most of the September 11 attackers were Saudi nationals, rather than Iranians.
The Islamic State claimed responsibility for the attacks, and Iranian social media were flooded with expressions of grief and worry, denunciations of the attackers' barbarism, and howls of defiance: the mood music of another pitiless jihadi attack. Then, on June 6, Saudi Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir said Iran had to be "punished" for what he called "its interference in the region". Tehran's foreign minister says the United States has not honored the nuclear deal.
The report also warned that the al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (also outlawed in Russia) remains a security concern, as it has not abandoned the goal of attacking the Saudi government and Western entities in the country, reports Sputnik.
"Iran shouted slogans against America and Israel", a narrator asserted, "in order to deceive the Sunnis, while the Jews of Iran live in security under the protection of the Iranian state".
On Tuesday, Iran's Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif referred to those remarks by the Saudi officials and called them a "direct threat and very unsafe provocation" by Riyadh. Authorities have arrested as many as 41 people suspected of links to the terror group.

"We believe that the rest of the global community will make it clear - as it has done already to them - that it considers the nuclear deal as a multilateral agreement and not a bilateral agreement between Iran and the United States", Zarif said. They have problems with the existence of Islamic Republic of Iran... "So, it will probably be abandoned by Tehran", Karim said. He said Iran would "definitely" react if a reaction was found warranted "based on the joint commission's discretion".
"In any case", Mogherini said, "the European Union will guarantee that the deal keeps, that we stick to that. and that our policy of engagement with Iran continues".
