Iranian Embassy: Trump's Statements Irresponsible and Dangerous

The Iranian Embassy in Nicosia strongly condemned the statements made by US President Donald Trump, describing them as “irresponsible, hostile and extremely dangerous” and as a clear act of interference in Iran’s internal affairs. The embassy rejected the threat of military intervention under the pretext of supporting protesters, emphasizing that it violates the country’s sovereignty and political independence. Furthermore, it denounced the statements as aiming to incite unrest and destabilization, as well as to legitimize a potential military intervention. The Embassy stressed that Iran’s missile and nuclear programs are defensive and peaceful, respectively, and that the country will not negotiate its defensive tools. Finally, it expressed Iran’s willingness for substantive negotiations with the United States, on the condition that the rights and achievements of the country are not challenged.
