Iran pushes back after Trump's charges of anti-Semitism

Explore Business Standard

Iran's foreign minister is pushing back after President Donald Trump said the country does "bad, bad things" and appeared to link it to the deadly attack on a Pittsburgh synagogue last year by an American anti-Semite.
Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif tweeted Wednesday that "Iranians including our Jewish compatriots are commemorating 40 yrs of progress despite US pressure, just as @realDonaldTrump again makes accusations against us."
We must never ignore the vile poison of anti-Semitism or those who spread its venomous creed."
