Iran Says No To Returning U.S. Drone, But Hints At Deal
A senior commander from Iran’s elite Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) says his country will not return an American surveillance drone captured by Iranian armed forces but also indicated willingness to reach a deal.
In remarks broadcast today on Iranian state television, General Hossein Salami said the violation of Iranian airspace by the U.S. unmanned drone was a “hostile act.”
“The U.S. can, however, compensate this aggressive move by some correct [political] measures,” Salami added.
Salami did not give further details on how the United States could compensate Iran.
