Iran<\/a> uses embassies as cover to plot terrorist attacks.<\/p>\nThe most recent example is the plot that the Belgians foiled, and we had an Iranian diplomat out of the Austrian embassy as part of the plot to bomb a meeting of Iranian opposition leaders in Paris. And the United States is urging all nations to carefully examine diplomats in Iranian embassies to ensure their countries\u2019 own security. If Iran can plot bomb attacks in Paris, they can plot attacks anywhere in the world, and we urge all nations to be vigilant about Iran using embassies as diplomatic cover to plot terrorist attacks.<\/p>\n
\u2026In our meeting with the Saudi energy minister, we discussed maintaining a well-supplied oil market to guard against volatility. We coordinated \u2013 we discussed U.S. oil sanctions to deny Iran revenue to finance terrorism. We talked about minimizing market disruptions and helping partners find alternatives to Iranian supply of oil.<\/p>\n
\u2026Very broadly, Saudi Arabia is a key partner in our effort to isolate and pressure Iran. And as I said, we had a number of bureaus from the State Department to discuss energy, diplomacy, security, and economic pressure. We were also joined by Treasury Under Secretary Sigal Mandelker for some of these meetings so that they can hear from Treasury officials and coordinate our efforts on applying maximum economic pressure on Iran.<\/p>\n
\u2026We also have State Department officials visiting \u2013 they have visited Bahrain today. \u2026 the United States and its Gulf partners are working very well together to push back on Iran until it starts behaving like a normal country. The combined efforts of the United States and Gulf states are a powerful deterrent, and we will continue to explore ideas and initiatives to raise the costs on Iran for its malign behavior.<\/p>\n
\u2026We will be in Brussels for the next couple of days for the NATO summit, and the Secretary will use various opportunities to consult with E3 ministers informally on the way forward on Iran. But he will also be conducting other bilats, and Iran will be on that agenda.<\/p>\n
SENIOR STATE DEPARTMENT OFFICIAL: Yes. There is still \u2013 no matter how much people write about the transatlantic rifts, in the case of Iran, we agree on much more than we disagree. The European nations are as frustrated as we are with Iran\u2019s missile program, missile attacks, which they are facilitating with the Houthis. We\u2019re seeing press reports just now about the Saudis intercepting another Houthi missile, which I think we can presume was supplied by the Iranians.<\/p>\n
So we will continue to work with the \u2013 our European allies on \u2013 to address the entire range of Iran\u2019s malign threats. And there\u2019s no shortage of work to be done, and we\u2019re working well together on those threats.<\/p>\n
QUESTION: Well, (inaudible) in terms of the embassies (inaudible). So I know there\u2019s been a lot of talk aimed at this arrest of the Iranian diplomat (inaudible) maybe not a false flag, but some kind of a \u2013 you think it\u2019s legit, number one?<\/p>\n
And then two, are you going beyond this urgent call to look at diplomats, to say that they should be expelled, that they should be closing Iranian embassies?<\/p>\n
SENIOR STATE DEPARTMENT OFFICIAL: The most recent plot in Europe by Iranians is another chapter in a long history that dates back to 1984, when Iran was starting these hijackings on commercial airliners, bombings, assassinations. So when you look at what Iran has done just in Europe since 1984 and continuing up to the present, all nations need to exercise vigilance to protect themselves against the Iranian threat. And this is only the most recent example of Iran using diplomatic cover to plot terrorism. And we certainly want all countries to make good decisions about their own security, and we think Iran presents an enduring threat to nations, and they need to be vigilant.<\/p>\n
QUESTION: And so you take this arrest and then this (inaudible) seriously?<\/p>\n
SENIOR STATE DEPARTMENT OFFICIAL: Very seriously. We are working very closely with the Belgians and the Austrians and the Germans to get to the bottom of this plot to conduct a bomb attack in Paris that had two Americans speaking, attending.<\/p>\n
QUESTION: And you believe Iran is responsible?<\/p>\n
SENIOR STATE DEPARTMENT OFFICIAL: Yes, we do.<\/p>\n
QUESTION: Do you know \u2013 you don\u2019t (inaudible) \u2014<\/p>\n
QUESTION: Do you know whether the target was the MEK or the Americans visiting (inaudible)?<\/p>\n
SENIOR STATE DEPARTMENT OFFICIAL: I can\u2019t speculate on that.<\/p>\n
MODERATOR: Just a couple more questions.<\/p>\n
SENIOR STATE DEPARTMENT OFFICIAL: We do not believe Iran\u2019s ludicrous claim that this is a false flag.<\/p>\n
SENIOR STATE DEPARTMENT OFFICIAL: Well, the Secretary has talked of the role that Iran has played to really worsen and deepen the humanitarian situation in Yemen. When Iran supplies missiles that are fired into a commercial airport, it threatens people from every nation who are flying into another country\u2019s airport. So we talked about how to better deter Iran, how to cut off their supply lines so that they\u2019re not able to supply the Houthis with material to conduct bomb attacks inside Saudi Arabia. We think a role \u2013 that Iran has played a very large role in contributing to the humanitarian catastrophe in Yemen.<\/p>\n
QUESTION: \u2014 on the oils side, on the other side of this whole thing, the folks who are actually importing Iranian oil? What are the conversations looking like with them? Are you convinced that they\u2019ll actually be cutting off supply by \u2014<\/p>\n
QUESTION: By the 4th.<\/p>\n
QUESTION: \u2014 the November deadline?<\/p>\n
SENIOR STATE DEPARTMENT OFFICIAL: Yeah, November 4th. Well, the \u2013 we are \u2013 we know that most of Iran\u2019s hard currency is derived from its exports of oil, and Iran uses its oil revenues to finance foreign wars and stoke violence throughout the Middle East. I mean, we are very serious and determined about re-imposing our sanctions that were lifted under the Iran nuclear deal, and we are working very closely with nations to provide alternatives to the Iranian supply of oil. We\u2019re very confident that we\u2019ll be able to do that without minimizing \u2013 without \u2013 and we\u2019ll be able to do that without market disruptions and working closely with the Saudis and other oil producing nations to make sure that we have a well-supplied oil market.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
