Earlier, US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said that the goal of the American side in Iran is not a war, but a change in the behavior of the Iranian leadership.
On May 6, it became known that the United States intended to send a strike group with an aircraft carrier to the shores of Iran as a “signal” to Tehran.
As noted in Tehran, Iran does not want a war with the United States, but will defend itself if Washington is the first to start clashes.
US Special Representative for Iran Brian Hook also said that Washington is ready to respond to Tehran's possible actions in the Middle East region.
