US will respond ‘decisively’ to any attack, Blinken warns Iran
United Nations, United States – AFP
Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Tuesday warned Iran that the United States would respond “decisively” to any attack by its proxies, as tensions rise between Israel and Palestinians.
“The United States does not seek conflict with Iran. We do not want this war to widen. But if Iran or its proxies attack US personnel anywhere, make no mistake. We will defend our people — we will defend our security — swiftly and decisively,” Blinken told a UN Security Council session.
