Defense Minister Amir Hatami warned of US plots against some regional nations and said Washington is seeking to create instability in the region in line with the interests of the Israeli regime. In a phone conversation with his Pakistani counterpart, Khurram Dastgir Khan, on Thursday, Hatami said the conditions of the region and the Islamic ummah (community) necessitate more consultations between Tehran and Islamabad, Tasnim News Agency reported. He referred to US schemes against regional countries, saying, “The Americans always blame others for their failures in various parts of the world and follow the strategy of the Zionist regime to destabilize the region.” The Iranian defense chief emphasized that the increase in illicit crop cultivation and the spread of terrorism in Afghanistan, the escalation of insecurity and the daily killing of dozens of innocent people in Afghanistan, Yemen, Iraq, and Syria, are the outcome of the foolish policies of the US. Khurram Dastgir Khan called for closer defense ties between Iran and Pakistan in various areas and said regional developments require the two countries to boost their cooperation more than ever.
