In a post on his X account, Baqaei drew a comparison between Washington’s treatment of Canada and Ottawa’s decision to join the US-led military aggression against Iran, highlighting repeated US pressure and insults toward its northern neighbor.
“Washington calls Canada its 51st state; Washington imposes tariffs on Canadian goods; Washington insults Canada and threatens to punish it over wildfire smoke;........Ottawa’s response: Understood, Sir!” Baqaei wrote.
“Meanwhile, Ottawa participates in the US-led unlawful war of choice against Iran, to appease Washington! What's the reward? THIS IS NOT HOCKEY NIGHT IN CANADA; IT IS WASHINGTON'S FARM TEAM,” the Iranian spokesman said.
