Iranian authorities are actively warning European countries not to intervene in the Middle East conflict, or face consequences, Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Majid Takht-Ravanchi said on March 6.

"Tehran has already warned Europeans and everyone else that they should be careful and not intervene in this aggressive war against Iran," he told France 24.

The diplomat emphasized that any state that supports US and Israeli aggression against Iran will automatically become a legitimate target for Tehran's retaliatory actions. He added that Iran will not leave threats to its sovereignty unanswered and is prepared to take necessary measures to defend it.
