RFERL: Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif has condemned a U.S. Supreme Court decision to partially reinstate President Donald Trump's temporary ban on travelers from six predominantly Muslim countries.

"It's regrettable that the citizens of the countries on the list have never participated in any act of terrorism against the U.S. and yet they are being punished for acts of terrorism by citizens of other countries which are not on the list," Zarif said in Berlin on June 27.

The travel ban "doesn't help, it doesn't increase anybody's security," Zarif said.

The United States accuses Iran of supporting terrorism. Tehran backs militant groups such as Hamas in the Gaza Strip and Lebanon's Shi'ite Hizballah militia, which have been designated as terrorist organizations by the U.S. State Department >>>
