(ANSA) - TEHERAN, MAY 18 - "With the Trump administration, the United States tries to weaken the world order and promote international anarchy". It is the accusation launched by the spokesman of the Iranian Foreign Ministry Abbas Mousavi, in response to the news of the deployment of four American warships in the Caribbean to prevent possible deliveries of Tehran oil to Venezuela. "Iran's transfer of fuel to Venezuela takes place in the context of free trade and, if the Americans take any illegal action, they will have to face the Iranian response. We have given the necessary warning to the Americans through the Swiss ambassador to Tehran MarkusLeitner - the spokesman explained of the Islamic Republic - even with a letter from Foreign Minister Mohammad JavadZarif to the UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres. Let's hope they don't do stupid actions. "
