Breaking News: The spokesperson of the Indian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Randhir Jaiswal, has issued a threat to Iran for the first time today:
"There is no doubt that India will first confirm whether Iran was involved in such an attack. If it is confirmed, India will respond to Iran more severely than it would to Pakistan. India does not recognize terrorism, and if Iran takes any aggressive actions against India, India will not let them off."
Iran attacked the U.S.-owned oil tanker "Safesea Vishnu" this morning, and an Indian citizen died in the incident. The tanker was located in Iraqi waters.
India claims that Iran has allowed the oil tanker to pass safely through the Strait of Hormuz.
However, an Iranian source told Reuters: "We deny allowing a tanker flying the Indian flag to pass through the Strait of Hormuz."
Indians lament that the strait is neither closed nor open, and no passage permit has been obtained. The strait is like "Schrödinger's waterway": whether it is open or not depends on which Iranian agency you ask, and which country's flag your tanker flies.
