Iran Foreign Ministry spokesman Baghaei said Seoul should refrain from deploying
military forces to the region or joining maritime operations to reopen the
Strait of Hormuz, and avoid intervening in an already complex issue. He warned
Iran does not want countries beyond the US, Israel and some of their allies to
side with them or become accomplices to months-old military aggression, and
urged South Korea and other states to avoid actions that would further
complicate regional tensions.
