“A bigoted ban on Muslims will not keep US safer,” Iranian foreign minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said in a post in his Twitter account.

“Instead of policies empowering extremists, the US should join the real fight against them,” he went on to say.

“Another dangerous US escalation in Syria on fake pretext will only serve ISIS, precisely when it’s being wiped out by Iraqi and Syrian people,” Zarif added.
