*Note: I hear China and Russia have too, agreed to back Iran if attacked by U.S.*
Iranian Ambassador to Mexico has warned that any possible military action against the Islamic Republic could spark World War III.
In an interview with Mexican TV news network Televisa on Wednesday, Mohammad-Hassan Qadiri-Abyaneh cautioned that the result of a possible US attack against Iran would certainly be far from victory.
"On the contrary, this should be considered as the start of World War III," he added.
He noted that US intellectuals have also cautioned the country's leaders against such measure.
Qadiri-Abyaneh stated that Iran is making all-out efforts to avoid war. "However, we will confront the aggressor and defend our rights," he reiterated.
The envoy went on to say, "A major question is whether it is Iran which is threatening to wage war along US borders or it is the US fomenting tension along Iranian borders."
He called on the Mexican government and people to spare no efforts to make the American government put its warmongering policies on hold and to dissuade it from trying to acquire other people's oil resources.
"Mexico's oil belongs to Mexican people in the same way that Iran's oil belongs to Iranians. The US doesn't have the right to impose its policies on other nations."
Elsewhere in his remarks, Qadiri-Abyaneh elaborated on Iran's stance on developing relations with the Latin American countries, especially Mexico, as one of the most important states in the region.
