WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Just days after Defense Secretary Robert Gates made clear the United States is trying to ratchet down tensions with Iran, the top U.S. naval commander in the region has made some unusually harsh public statements about the intentions of Iran's recent war games and exercises in the Persian Gulf.
He went on to say, "Specifically the concern with Iran is the combination of rhetoric and the exercises have taken on a very bellicose and pugnacious tone."
Walsh told reporters he was not trying to add to tensions with Iran, but said, "The trend line with Iran is one that is very concerning and troubling." --From CNN's Barbara Starr (Posted 2:27 p.m.)
