Iran's Foreign Minister (FM) Abbas Araghchi responded to Israel's Defence Minister Israel Katz's comments on the latter country and their Supreme Leader who as per Katz was "marked for death" in an 'X' post on Wednesday.
"POTUS (President of the United States of America) has committed the U.S. to muzzling its pets in Tel Aviv. If they ignore their master, Iran will school them," Aragchi said in his post.
The Iranian Foreign Minister was responding to a statement by Katz where he said that Iran's Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei was "marked for death" and that Israel would not allow Iran to produce nuclear weapons.
"Any threat against our People and Leadership will receive Immediate Powerful Response," Araghchi stated.
The terms of the Islamabad MoU are crystal clear and public for all to see.
