The statement came amid rising tensions over Tehran’s nuclear program and regional influence. Rezaei said the warning targets nations considering participation in US-led sanctions or trade restrictions aimed at isolating Iran economically. He emphasized that Tehran views such moves as hostile and will respond with diplomatic, economic, or other measures to protect its interests.
