Iran criticized a US plan to designate the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist organization, Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said in Doha on Wednesday, ONA reports citing Reuters.

“The U.S. is not in position to (..) start naming others as terror organizations and we reject any attempt by the US in this regard,” he told reporters on a sideline of a conference.

President Donald Trump is working to designate the Muslim Brotherhood a foreign terrorist organization, the White House said on Tuesday, which would lead to sanctions against Egypt’s oldest Islamist movement.
