Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif’s credibility is “diminishing”, UAE Minister of State for Foreign Affairs Anwar Gargash said on Friday.
“Every single day Iran’s Foreign Minister Zarif’s reference to team B becomes more farcical and his credibility diminishing.
“Public relations is no real substitute to constructive policies.

“De-escalation in current situation requires wise actions not empty words,’’ Gargash said.
Zarif often uses “Team B” to refer to U.S. National Security Adviser John Bolton and those in the administration and the Gulf region who share his hawkish stance towards Iran.
Gargash’s tweet seemed to be a reaction to one by Zarif, an hour earlier, saying: “Some misinterpretations necessitate a clarification: B_Team is sabotaging diplomacy and covering up Economic Terrorism by the U.S. against Iran.” (NAN)
