Iran targets US State Department chief Mike Pompeo

TEHRAN, 17 September 2020 (TON): Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Saeed Khatibzadeh dismissed the US State Department chief Mike Pompeo secretary's tweets “as “a psychotic reaction to Washington's successive defeats”, on the issue of execution of Iranian convict Navid Afkari as Iran's internal affairs. The spokesman underlined that the U.S. government itself has the darkest human rights record as there is no single day without protests from the American people against violence, discrimination and racism. He added, "Unfortunately, the U.S. state secretary, who is witnessing the failure of the policy of maximum pressure and unilateralism on Iran more and more, is attempting desperately to retrieve part of the lost prestige of Trump's regime by claiming to advocate human rights."
