Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has criticized the relationship between the United States and Israel, describing it as a "parasitic" one. According to Araghchi, the U.S. has spent over $11 billion in taxpayer money on missile defense systems for Israel over the past three years, with the U.S. firing more interceptors to defend Israel than Israel has done itself. Araghchi argues that this dynamic is not symbiotic, but rather one-sided and exploitative.
