Irans foreign minister has warned that US national security advisor, John Bolton, is plotting to raise tensions between the United Kingdom and Iran.
Mohammad Javad Zarif suggests Bolton is switching tactics having failed to tempt the US President into waging a war on Iran.
In a twitter post, the top Iranian diplomat said: Having failed to lure President Donald Trump into a War of the Century, and fearing collapse of his B-team, Bolton is turning his venom against the UK in hopes of dragging it into a quagmire. He added that only prudence and foresight can thwart such ploys.
Zarif coined the term the B-Team, when referring to anti-Iran hawks in the White House and American allies in the region: Israel, Saudi Arabia and the UAE.
