US Defense Secretary James Mattis said Iran is the largest country in the world that sponsors terrorism.
His comments came as tension rises between the two states and a day after the administration "Trump" decided new sanctions against Iran, in response to a ballistic missile test.
On the other hand, Iran has held several military exercises to challenge US sanctions. According to Iranian media, they were tested during military exercises missile systems, radar, command and control centers and cyber warfare systems, all produced in Iran after the Islamic republic can not import anything like that.
"With regard to Iran, it is the largest country in the world that sponsors terrorism. We have seen misconduct of this country from Lebanon until Syria, Bahrain until Yemen and sooner or later, we have to deal with this. However, there is no need to increase the number of troops in the Middle East. We will not ever fight started, "said James Mattis, US Secretary of Defense.
Iran insists it has conducted tests that do not violate UN resolutions or nuclear pact reached with major powers
