Hawzah News Agency- Araghchi made the remarks during a phone conversation with his British counterpart Ed Miliband in which he criticized London's approach toward Iran, including its recent decision targeting Iran's armed forces and Britain's support for US and "Israeli" aggression against the country.
The Iranian Foreign Ministry said Araghchi rejected any cooperation with "aggressors," including under the pretext of previous defense agreements.
"According to international law and the definition of aggression in relevant resolutions, allowing aggressor parties to use the territory and facilities of a country to launch an illegal attack against another country constitutes an act of aggression and grants the attacked country the right to resort to legitimate self-defense," Araghchi said, according to the statement.
Earlier, Iranian officials criticized Britain's role in providing strategic infrastructure for US acts of aggression, including the use of British-controlled territories and bases for long-range wars.
