In a new post on his official Twitter account on Monday, Mohammad Javad Zarif said although Iran had no nuclear weapons, Israel, which is the sole Middle Eastern country to possess such weapons, continued to howl about fabricated Iranian ambitions.
There are at least 80 nuclear warheads stationed in the Middle East. None are in #Iran; rather, they're at the fingertips of a warmonger who howls incessantly about fabricated Iranian ambitions the top Iranian diplomat said.

He also urged the world to start paying more attention to Israels nukes by starting an overdue debate on the real threat to the region & beyond.
Israel is estimated to have 200 to 400 nuclear warheads in its arsenal. The regime, however, refuses to either accept or deny having the weapons.
It has also evaded signing the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) amid staunch endeavor by the United States and other Western states on international levels in favor of its non-commitment to the accord.
Iranian Ambassador to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Reza Najafi in September 2017 denounced the Wests double standard approaches on the possession and development of atomic technology, urging a complete end to any nuclear cooperation with the Israeli regime.
Addressing a quarterly meeting of the IAEAs 35-member Board of Governors in Vienna, Najafi warned that the Israeli regimes nuclear program is negatively impacting security of the Middle East.
