Iran and US exchanged letters
In an interview with NBC News Friday, Iran's ambassador to the United Nations called the assassination of Gen. Qassem Soleimani "an illegitimate action" and "an act of aggression" in violation of international law.Amb. Majid Takht Ravanchi also said that although he believes the Trump administration "does not believe in dialogue," Iran and the U.S. have exchanged letters through a Swiss emissary since news of the assassination broke late Thursday, Faktor.az reports citing Euronews.
Ravanchi declined to elaborate on those letters, but said Soleimani's killing will be met with "harsh revenge" by Tehran.
