Iran subtly threatens Turkey, drawing link between Ankara bombing and "Zionist policy"

This article from Iran's Mehr News sounds like a backhanded threat:
Iranian senior MP, pointing to the terrorist blast in Ankara, said Turkey’s continued support for the Zionist movement is detrimental to the country’s security.

Noting Turkey follows wrong policies in the region, Head of Parliament National Security and Foreign Policy Commission Alaeddin Boroujerdi said Iran favors lasting security in Turkey, as a neighbor and an Islamic country.

He added that Turkey's policy in the region, which is playing with fire, would strengthen and train terrorists and provide arms to them.

He expressed regret over the recent terrorist blast in Turkey’s capital city and noted the continuation of the policy of strengthening Zionists poses a threat to the security of the countries which support terrorism.

The explosion occurred during evening rush hour in the heart of Ankara on Wednesday, in an area close to where military headquarters and parliament are located, killing at least 28 people and wounding dozens others.

"We really don't want to see anything bad happen to you. It would be a shame if there more more of these unfortunate incidents."
