“Today the world's catching on to @AmbJohnBolton’s chronic warmongering. But Iranians didn’t need to read a 10,000 word @NewYorker profile to be convinced: we've seen him shill for a cult terror group, and—along with his #B_Team accomplices—target Iranians with #EconomicTerrorism,” Zarif tweeted on Tuesday.
In a recent interview with Fox News, Zarid said a "B team" of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, US national security adviser John Bolton, and leaders in Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates is trying to push Trump "into a confrontation he doesn't want”.
"They have tried to bring the US into a war" with Iran, Zarif said, with the goal, "at least" of “regime change”.
Bolton, appearing on the same Fox News program, said the US goal is not regime change, but a change in behavior, specifically an end to Iran's alleged nuclear weapons program and ballistic missile testing.
