Estimated cost of war with U.S.-Israel stood at $270 billion: Iranian Spokesperson
Iranian Government on Tuesday estimated that the cost of the war launched by the United States (U.S.) and Israel since February at 270 billion dollar.
The government spokeswoman, Fatemeh Mohajerani, told the Russian state news agency RIA Novosti that the figure was a preliminary estimate.
According to Mohajerani, the first step in putting a more complete figure on the extent of the reparations will be to evaluate damage to buildings.
With this, the economic losses and lost tax revenues would be analysed.
She said that the Iranian government would seek compensation from U.S and Israel.
She added that the topic has been part of the negotiations with the U.S. during the landmark direct talks in Islamabad during the weekend.
