Deployment of F-22 in UAE threatens the regional security, Iran's Defense Minister Ahmad Vahidi said, IRIB news reported.

Vahidi noted that cooperation of all regional powers is important, while such actions as deployment of F-22 Raptor fighter jets inside the region only shatter the stability.

Earlier, The Rapporteur of Iranian Parliament National Security and Foreign Policy Commission, Kazem Jalali said the same thing, condemning the F-22 deployment, adding that it was a "US-Zionist move".

The parliament rapporteur noted regional peace and security would be established if all regional countries are united, as adding the presence of major powers as well as stockpiling weapons inside the region would insecure the area.
