Iran hits back at Pompeo over alleged assassination attempt in Turkey
Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesman has lashed out at US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo for accusing “Iranian diplomats” of involvement in an alleged “assassination” in Turkey last November.
“Undisputed fact: US “diplomats” have long been in the business of coups, arming terrorists, fueling sectarian violence, supporting narcotics cartels, bullying governments & companies, spying on even US allies, flirting with dictators, butchers and terrorists, etc…,” Abbas Mousavi said in a tweet on Saturday.

However, Mousavi added, the US secretary of state, who is a former CIA agent and also known as secretary of hate, and his masters have taken the “job” to a whole new level that is called “medical terrorism.”
“That’s why he has a conscience so filled with guilt that resorts to such psychological projection,” the Iranian spokesperson added.
Mousavi’s tweet came after Pompeo, President Donald Trump administration’s most notorious Iran hawk, leveled the accusation in an earlier tweet, calling Iranian diplomats “agents of terror” who “have conducted multiple assassinations and bomb plots in Europe over the past decade.”
Iran’s ambassador to the United Nations also on Thursday reacted to Pompeo’s accusation and said nobody will be duped by Washington’s campaign of disinformation against Tehran.
