Iran has advised former U.S. President Donald Trump to refrain from repeating threats against Tehran, conveying the message through diplomatic and public channels and stressing that such rhetoric could destabilize the region.
According to sources, Iran believes that Mr. Trump's threatening statements not only create unnecessary tension but also undermine ongoing diplomatic efforts. Tehran stressed that any provocative action would meet an appropriate response from Iran.
The move comes amid already strained U.S.-Iran relations, particularly after the U.S. withdrawal from the 2015 nuclear deal. Analysts view Iran's warning as an attempt to prevent future escalation while demonstrating Tehran's firmness in the face of external pressure.
