Washington - US secretary of state Condoleezza Rice warned Iran on Thursday that her country won't "stand idly by" while Tehran operates against US interests in neighbouring Iraq.
Speaking hours after US troops raided Iran's consulate in the northern Iraqi city of Arbil and arrested five employees, Rice said Washington was determined to "pursue" Iranians trying to disrupt US efforts to stabilise Iraq.
"You will see that the US is not going to simply stand idly by and let these activities continue," she said on Fox News television.
