To cool down the situation, Iran’s foreign minister said there was no possibility of war in the region.

　　BEIJING, May 19 (Xinhua) On the occasion of the increasingly tense situation in the Middle East, Iranian Foreign Minister Jawad Zarif dismissed the possibility of a war in the region on the 18th, saying that Tehran did not want a conflict. But on the same day, Washington issued a warning to American commercial airliners flying over Gulf waters and Gulf of Oman.

　　Iranian Foreign Minister: There will be no war.

　　Recently, the tension between the United States and Iran has intensified, which has triggered concerns about the conflict between the United States and Iran. Earlier this week, after an oil tanker was attacked in the Gulf region, the United States evacuated a group of diplomats from its embassy in Baghdad, Iraq.

　　In response to rising regional tensions, Iranian Foreign Minister Zarif said on the 18th that "there will be no war, because we don’t want war, and there will be no idea or illusion that anyone wants to confront Iran in the region."

　　"In fact, Trump has officially stated and reiterated that he does not want a war, but people around him are pushing the war on the grounds that they want the United States to be stronger than Iran." Zarif said.

　　Tehran has previously described the recent measures taken by the United States to increase its military presence in the Middle East as "psychological warfare" and "political games".

　　Exxonmobil evacuated the oil field.

　　However, after several days of military offensives in the United States and Iraq, ExxonMobil evacuated an oil field near Iraq, which showed that the tension in the whole region was increasing.

　　Elsewhere in the Gulf, Bahrain also warned its citizens not to travel to Iraq or Iran because of "unstable conditions".

　　In Washington, officials urged American commercial airliners flying over Gulf waters and Gulf of Oman to be cautious.

　　In addition, Saudi Press Agency quoted a senior official of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs as saying that against the background of deteriorating relations with Iran, King Salman of Saudi Arabia called on Arab leaders to hold an emergency summit in Mecca.
