“There are a lot of hotheads in Washington who want to solve the problem with Iran by military means. We did not feel any mood, in this respect, with President Trump. I do not feel that he shares such views, ”the minister said in an interview with the Latin American media and RT.
Lavrov expressed regret that many American politicians are still carrying this idea.
In his opinion, this will be an extremely dangerous development of events.
The full version of the interview is in the RT material.
Earlier, Lavrov said that against the background of the ongoing exchange of accusations between Washington and Tehran, there has been an increase in the number of naval groups by the Americans, which creates risks of an armed clash.
The Minister noted that any “careless movement” can lead to conflict, fraught with unpredictable and destructive consequences.
