Supreme Leader of Iran Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei on Monday accused the US of creating the terrorist group of Daesh (ISIS).

He said the region and its affairs do not concern the United States, reported IRNA news agency of Iran.

“The US is terrorist itself, a terrorist sponsor and an advocate of a regime such as the Zionist regime which is the mastermind of terrorism and was created with terror and oppression. Therefore, it is impossible to deal with the US,” he noted. 

Ayatollah Khamenei added that the US and its agents are those who have destabilized the region, like what they did in the North Africa, West Asia, Syria, and Iraq.
