The Democratic presidential candidate criticized the president after he said he was 'waiting to hear' from Saudi Arabia before acting in regards to the weekend Aramco drone attack.
Yemen's Houthis, who are allied with Iran, claimed responsibility for the attack, which disrupted 5 percent of the world's oil supply. Saudi Arabia's state-owned oil company Aramco is one of the largest producers of oil in the world, with the kingdom being responsible for about 10 percent of the current daily global supply. The attack was carried out by drones, which set the kingdom's oil fields ablaze.
"Amid all the calls for de-escalation, Iran has now launched an unprecedented attack on the world's energy supply," he wrote."There is no evidence the attacks came from Yemen." "In international relations, even 'hostility' [should have] a minimum degree of credibility and logical frameworks, but the U.S. officials have ignored even such minimum principles," Abbas Mousavi, a spokesperson for Iran's Foreign Ministry, said in a Sunday statement.
