Iran's foreign ministry condemns Albania's decision to sever diplomatic ties
The Iranian Foreign Ministry issued a statement on the 7th, strongly condemning Albania's announcement to cut off diplomatic relations with Iran.
The statement said Albania's announcement to cut diplomatic relations with Iran was "miscalculated and short-sighted" and that its allegations against Iran were "baseless and unsubstantiated."
Iran's critical infrastructure has also suffered cyber attacks, and Iran opposes and condemns any use of cyberspace to attack other countries.
"There was a pre-designed plan" to create a political climate against Iran, the statement said.
Albania's "inappropriate decision" to cut diplomatic relations with Iran was influenced by a third party.
Albanian Prime Minister Rama announced earlier on the 7th that due to Iran's cyber attack, Albania decided to cut off diplomatic relations with Iran, and diplomats and other staff of the Iranian embassy in Albania must leave the country within 24 hours.
