Top Iranian Authority says Trump's Claims about a Naval Blockade are Fantastic Rhetoric to Control the Minds of Americans; “He speaks of a fantasy and demands that will never be achieved”

From [HERE] Head of the Iranian parliament's National Security and Foreign Policy Committee, Ebrahim Azizi, said in remarks to Iranian television, responding to US President Donald Trump’s claims about a naval blockade against Iran, that “what they are doing is nothing but exaggeration and empty rhetoric.”

Azizi added that the US president “merely voices his wishes and speaks of a fantasy and demands that have never been achieved, and will never be achieved.”

He further described Trump’s remarks made just hours after talks, including claims that he would take certain actions in the Sea of Oman and the Indian Ocean, as “the natural behavior of a defeated president.”

Azizi continued: “The Americans sought to stage a spectacle yesterday and, through deception, attempted to carry out movements in the Strait of Hormuz,” noting that “they have once again failed and were unable to influence the negotiating table.”

He also stressed that Iran remains committed to the rules and conditions of the ceasefire, while expressing doubt that “the Zionists and the Americans will abide by it given the defeats they are suffering.” [MORE]
