Comments by Iranian oil minister, Bijan Namdar Zanganeh
- Oil is not a weapon but the US is using it as one
The mention of "soon" is hardly comforting that tensions in the region will settle down in the near future. It's hard not to read anything more into what Zanganeh is implying with that but it may just be a comment that is lost in translation.
Meanwhile, Iran foreign minister Zarif is speaking to CNN and he says that Iran will engage in an "all out war" if there is ever a military strike on Tehran.
