Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian has said the Islamic Republic will strive to thwart all plots hatched by the enemies, Press TV reported.
He made the remark while addressing a huge crowd of people marking the 46th anniversary of the victory of the 1979 Islamic Revolution in Tehran on Monday.
Masoud Pezeshkian criticized US President Donald Trump’s recent claim that he wishes to hold talks with Iran while simultaneously issuing a presidential memorandum that instructs the US Treasury and State Department to implement a campaign aimed at “driving Iran’s oil exports to zero.”
“Trump says let’s have a dialogue, and then … he signs and announces all possible conspiracies to bring the [Islamic] Revolution to its knees,” the president said.
Trump claims that Iran is disrupting regional security but “it is Israel that, with the support of the United States, is the root cause of insecurity and bombs the oppressed people of Gaza, Lebanon, Palestine, Syria, Iran and wherever it wishes,” Pezeshkian added.
The US president claims to defend peace and tranquility but he defends a criminal who has been convicted by international organizations, Pezeshkian said, referring to Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
