Iran strongly denied on Thursday an American accusation that it had moved some border posts several kilometres into Iraq.
"I strongly deny it. Since before the American presence in Iraq until the present day there have been no changes in Iran's border posts", the Islamic Republic's government spokesman Abdollah Ramazanzadeh told Reuters.
On Wednesday, US Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld told a Senate committee there had been reports Tehran had moved posts several kilometers inside Iraq. "Certainly that is behavior that is not acceptable and they should be staying on their own side of the border", he said. (Albawaba.com)
