Iran can strike Europe like Arab countries, hardline daily editor says
The editor-in-chief of Iran’s hardline Kayhan newspaper said on Tuesday that Iran could strike Europe as it had struck Arab countries if European bases were used by the United States.
Hossein Shariatmadari wrote that military bases in European countries made available to Washington “can and must” become what he called legitimate targets for Iranian attacks.
“European governments know we can strike, and strike well,” Shariatmadari wrote.
He said Europe was highly vulnerable to Iranian attacks and had almost no ability to withstand them.
