US State Department spokesman Matthew Miller offered the condolences in a statement on Monday.
“The United States expresses its official condolences for the death of Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi, Foreign Minister Amirabdollahian, and other members of their delegation in a helicopter crash in northwest Iran.”
Raisi lost his life alongside his accompanying delegation after their chopper crashed in the Dizmar forest in East Azarbaijan Province on Sunday.
