Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif says U.S. charges that Iran has a chemical weapons program are "obscene and dangerous."

Zarif said in a tweet on November 23 that "[The] U.S. wants to resort to international conventions to make allegations against Iran when it's made a policy of violating them itself."

He added that such allegations "by a country that supported Iraq's use of [chemical weapons by Iraq] against Iran, then invaded Iraq to allegedly rid it of them is not just obscene, it's dangerous."
