Araghchi, for his part, has said that “The action of the Zionist (Israeli) regime and the United States in targeting the Anzali port has severely endangered security and stability in the Caspian Sea, and it is necessary for the littoral states to have a unified and decisive reaction against this criminal and destabilising act”.
