“The United States on Sunday offered help and condolences to the people of Iran over a double earthquake that claimed 227 lives and injured more than 1,000 others. The statement was notably addressed to the ‘Iranian people’ and made no mention of the government of Iran. The United States and Iran have no diplomatic relations and have been involved in a tense diplomatic standoff for decades.”
