Iran Foreign Minister Javad Zarif threatens 'all-out war' in the event of a US or Saudi military strike on the country
Tehran, Iran Iran's foreign minister has raised the specter of"all-out war" in the event of US or Saudi military strikes and that Saudi Arabia would have to fight"to the last American soldier."
Javad Zarif told CNN that Iran hoped to avoid conflict, adding that the country was willing to talk to its regional rivals Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. But the possibility of a return to negotiations with the US, however, would not happen unless Washington provided full sanctions relief as promised under the 2015 nuclear deal, Tehran's top diplomat said.
