Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif has reacted to the “latest mockery” of the US Secretary of State regarding Iran’s ballistic missile activity, Mehr News reported.

In a Thursday tweet, Zarif berated US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, who on Wednesday, “bragged about violating the Resolution 2231 of the United Nations Security Council” and also outlined plans for more violations against the Islamic Republic’s rights.

Further in his tweet, Zarif noted that Pompeo’s remarks “confirmed that the US and allies rely on the defunct Resolution 1929 on provision on missiles.”

Yesterday (Dec. 12), at the Security Council’s session on Iran, Pompeo urged the United Nations Security Council to prohibit Iran from conducting ballistic missile tests. He again claimed that Tehran has increased its ballistic missile activity since the Iran nuclear deal took effect in 2016 and defended the Trump administration's decision earlier this year to withdraw from the agreement.

He also said that the US will be relentless in building a coalition to confront Iran’s ballistic missile activity.

However, the divide between the US and other participants in the event was abundantly clear.
