Iran Formally Complains US Claims, Asks Washington’s Apology
Local Editor
"Iran has formally complained to US over claims the Iranian government was involved in an alleged plot to kill Saudi Arabia's ambassador to the United States," a US official said Sunday.
The official said the US received a diplomatic note on Friday expressing "displeasure with the charges that were leveled earlier this month."
Iran has already denied the allegations.
The official said "the note was delivered through the Swiss embassy in Tehran, which represents US interests in Iran since the two countries don't have diplomatic relations."
Associated Press Agency quoted the official on condition of anonymity to discuss a private diplomatic exchange.
Earlier this month, US officials claimed that Iranian agents were involved in the suspected plot to kill the Saudi ambassador to the US Adel Al-Jubeir.
An Iranian diplomatic source, who also spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the matter, said the letter emphasized Iranian assertions that Washington's allegations are "based on lies" and called into "question US diplomatic tactics resembling violations of international rules and regulations."
"The letter called for a US apology for the ambassador plot allegations and sought unspecified compensation for material and moral damages of this baseless accusation," the source added
