Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi
The comments by Abbas Araghchi, who saw his invitation to the World Economic Forum in Davos rescinded over the killings, come as a US aircraft carrier group moves westward toward the Middle East from Asia.
US fighter jets and other equipment appear to be moving in the Middle East after a major US military deployment in the Caribbean saw troops seize Venezuela's former leader Nicolas Maduro.
