Iran’s Revolutionary Guards threatened on Wednesday to cut regional oil supplies following similar statements delivered by President Hassan Rouhani, who said his country is ready to prevent oil shipments from neighboring countries if Washington presses ahead with its goal of forcing all countries to stop buying Iranian oil. Echoing Rouhani’s position, Iranian Revolutionary Guards commander Major-General Qassem Soleimani said he was ready to implement such a policy if needed. "I kiss your (Rouhanis) hand for expressing such wise and timely comments, and I am at your service to implement any policy that serves the Islamic Republic," Soleimani, commander of foreign operations for the elite Revolutionary Guards, said in a letter published by state news agency IRNA. In a related development, Rouhani informed Director General of the Vienna-based International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Yukiya Amano that Tehran might decrease its cooperation with the UN agency. After meeting with Amano, the Iranian President said, “Iran’s nuclear activities have always been peaceful,” adding that Iran would be responsible to set the level of its cooperation with the IAEA. Referring to the US withdrawal from the JCPOA, Rouhani said those responsible for the change in Iran’s cooperation with the Energy Agency are signatories that led to this new situation. “If our nation’s rights are not met, we will make a new decision,” he added. Separately, the Belgian State Security said on Wednesday that the Iranian man detained in Belgium with his wife over a suspected plot to bomb a meeting of Iran opposition activists are believed to have been a “sleeper cell.” According to Belgian media reports, the couple, which lived in the country for years, had been installed by the regime in Tehran for conducting intelligence activities in Europe.
