Tehran : Iran’s Foreign Ministry has said that the act taken in connection with an American navy ship is something normal.
In an exclusive interview with IRNA, Foreign Ministry spokesman Mohammad-Ali Hosseini said: “That’s something normal taking place every now and then for each party and it (the problem) is settled after identification of the two parties.”
He recalled that the case had happened in the past too and finalised as the two parties identified each other.
He said: “The case happening on Saturday was similar to the past ones and it was a regular and natural issue.”
Some Western media late Monday quoted US officials as claiming that several Iranian speedboats had neared several US navy ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The US officials also claimed that during the incident warnings had been exchanged between the two sides.
