U.S. Secretary of State Calls Iranian President's Comments "Dangerous and Irresponsible"
(U.S. State Department) Secretary of State Michael R. Pompeo said Monday: "Iranian President Rouhani has once again called for the destruction of Israel. He referred to it as a 'cancerous tumor' and a 'fake regime.' Such statements inflame tensions in the region by seemingly calling for war. At an international conference on Islamic unity, Rouhani also encouraged Muslims worldwide to unite against the United States. This is a dangerous and irresponsible step that will further deepen Iran's isolation."
