Tehran contacted Washington for help, but the United States did not help for logistical reasons.

Iran has asked the United States for help after President Ibrahim Raisi’s helicopter crashed. This was announced by the spokesperson of the US State Department, Matthew Miller, AFP reports.

The State Department noted that Iran, which has had no diplomatic relations with the United States since the Islamic Revolution in 1979, turned to the United States after Raisi’s helicopter crashed May 19 in the mountains.

“The government of Iran approached us with a request for help. We said we would be ready to help – what we would do with any government in such a situation. In the end, mainly for logistical reasons, we were unable to provide of such help,” Miller said.

The US State Department expressed its official condolences on Raisi’s death in a statement. President Joe Biden’s administration has invoked the clemency standard and has not expressed support for Raisi.

“This is a man who has had a lot of blood on his hands,” National Security Council spokesman John Kirby said, saying Raisi was responsible for the brutal abuses.

We remind you that on May 19, a helicopter carrying Iranian President Ibrahim Raisi made a “hard landing” in a mountainous area, returning from Azerbaijan. For a long time, rescuers searched the crash site. On the morning of May 20, Iranian authorities announced that Raisi and other officials had died.
