Russia has alleged that the United States used an imaginary threat from Iran as a pretext to overthrow its constitutional order.
Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said this on Wednesday, stressing that the US’ calls for Iranians to seize power from their leaders were cynical and inhumane.
Zakharova further stated that the US had used negotiations with Iran, which were taking place as recently as last week, as a cover to disguise a plan for regime change there.
DAILY POST reports that Russia has a strategic partnership treaty with Iran and President Vladimir Putin has condemned what he described as the cynical murder of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
Recall that Khamenei was killed on the first day of the war launched by the US and Israel on Saturday.
“There is no doubt that the imaginary, invented Iranian threat, repeatedly stated over many years, was merely a pretext for the implementation of a long-cherished plan to violently overthrow the constitutional order of a sovereign state… that Washington and Tel Aviv dislike,” Zakharova said.
