Axios on Thursday reported that Abrams would replace Brian Hook, who is stepping down from the Iran job.
“There’s no difference between John Bolton, Brian Hook or Elliott Abrams,” Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Abbas Mousavi said in a tweet under the hashtag #BankruptUSIranPolicy.
Elliott Abrams, who is now serving as special representative for Venezuela, will assume Hook's position in addition for his current role.
