WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Tuesday accused Iran of harboring al-Qaeda (a terrorist organization banned in Russia) and for the first time publicly confirmed the death of the group’s high-ranking member Abu Muhammad al-Masri in Tehran.
“Al-Qaeda has a new home base - it is the Islamic Republic of Iran,” Pompeo said speaking at the National Press Club. “We ignored this Iran-al-Qaeda nexus at our own peril. We need to acknowledge it, we must confront it, indeed, we must defeat it.”
