Afghan Voice Agency (AVA): In a speech in Florida, US President Donald Trump admitted, referring to the theft of Iranian tankers by the Pentagon: We seized the ship, the cargo, and the oil; this is a very profitable business. We are like pirates.
The US military has so far stolen several Iranian commercial ships and tankers. The Islamic Republic has announced that these actions by Washington will not go unanswered.
The Pentagon has a long history of piracy and had previously hijacked several Venezuelan tankers in international waters.
Trump's admission of piracy or even committing war crimes against a civilization indicates that other American officials do not adhere to moral values, even in slogans and rhetoric.
