TEHRAN, Jan. 1 (Xinhua) -- Iran summoned the Swiss charge d'affaires to Tehran on Wednesday to protest against what it called "warmongering statements" by U.S. officials.
The Iranian Foreign Ministry presented the Swiss envoy with "Iran's strong protest against warmongering statements by U.S. officials in violation of the United Nations Charter," according to Iran's Foreign Ministry's website.
U.S. President Donald Trump threatened Iran after blaming it for an attack on the U.S. embassy in Iraq on Tuesday.
U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo also held Iran "accountable" for the attack on the U.S. embassy in Baghdad.
On Wednesday, the Iranian Foreign Ministry dismissed the allegations, noting that "the U.S. officials had better drop their blame game policy and stop accusing us without presenting any evidence."
