Iran’s top diplomat said on Sunday that only “prudence and foresight” could alleviate tensions between his country and Britain after Tehran’s seizure of a British-flagged oil tanker, APA reports citing Reuters.
“Having failed to lure Donald Trump into War of the Century, and fearing collapse of his B_Team Ambassador John Bolton is turning his venom against the UK in hopes of dragging it into a quagmire,” Mohammad Javad Zarif said on Twitter.
“Only prudence and foresight can thwart such ploys.” Britain has called Iran’s capture of the Stena Impero in the Strait of Hormuz on Friday a “hostile act”.
Tehran for weeks has vowed to retaliate for the seizure of its Grace 1 oil tanker by British forces for violating European Union sanctions on Syria.
