The leaders of Iran close Trump for “shameful” remarks during the Middle East tour | Nuclear waffles news

Tehran, Iran – The political and military leaders of Iran show the finger back on Donald Trump after the President of the United States sharpened his rhetoric during his first big tour through the Middle East.

In a speech in front of a group of teachers who gathered to a state ceremony in Tehran on Saturday, the top leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said, some of Trump's comments are not even worth.

“The level of these comments is so low that they are a shame for the one they expressed and a shame for the American nation,” he said about chants of “death to America” ​​and others from the crowd.

Khamenei added that Trump had “lied” when he said he wanted to use the power towards peace because Washington supported the Palestinians and others in the “Massakring” region. He called Israel a “dangerous cancer tumor” that “has to be” uprooted “.

In the meantime, the Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian also told a meeting of naval officers on Saturday that Trump expanded a peace message and at the same time threatens the destruction to support Israel's “genocide” in the Gaza Strip.

“What words this president should we believe? His message of peace or the message of the massacre of man?” The Iranian president said and pointed out that Trump had approved the International Criminal Court (ICC) in an internationally criticized step.

The statements occurred after Trump used his Middle East tour -during which he signed big business with Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates in order to praise the neighboring Iran of the Arab leader and to blow up the lead in Tehran.

The US President informed the Arab leaders that they would develop their infrastructure, while the Iranian “symbols collapse in ruins” after the theocratic establishment had replaced a monarchy in a 1979 revolution.

He said that the Iranian leaders had “managed to transform green farmland into dry deserts” because corruption and mismanagement were transformed into the desert and pointed out that the Iranians recorded power outages for several hours a day.

According to the Iranian authorities, the power failures, a result of a years of energy crisis that harm the already tense economy of Iran, will probably also linger for the rest of this year.

The largest associations in the mining, steel and cement industry in Iran on Saturday wrote a joint letter to Pezeshkian and urged him to review 90 percent of the power consumption for the critical sectors.

Trump, who welcomed Syria's interim president Ahmed al-Sharaa and increased sanctions against Damascus, also aimed at Iran's regional policy.

He described Tehran's support for the fallen foundation of President Bashar al-Assad as the cause of “misery and death” and regional destabilization.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi described the US President's statements as “deceptive” and informed the state media on Friday that the United States disabled Iran through sanctions and military threats while supporting Israel and attacking Syria.

The head of parliament Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, who dealt with an organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) in Indonesia, said Trump's statements showed that he “lived in a deception”.

Hossein Salami, the commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), spoke directly to Trump on Friday and said, although Iran has beautiful sights: “We are proud of the survey of character, identity, culture and Islam”.

The sharp rhetoric in response to Trump's most recent controversial comments comes days after he teased that he could soon call the “Persian Golf” as “Arabic Golf”.

This annoyed the Iranians across the board and, to criticize every attempt to rename the most important waterway of average citizens online, authorities, local media and even some Pro-Trump irans outside the country, which are committed to US sanctions and regime changes.

Skepticism towards Iran-USA

Both Iran and the USA say that they would prefer an agreement that would quickly de -escalate the tensions in connection with the Iranian nuclear program despite the last word war.

After four rounds of negotiations conveyed by Oman, which were mediated by Oman, every prospective business that would increase sanctions seems to ensure that Iran has no atomic bomb – still exposed to considerable hurdles.

Trump said Tehran said a proposal to a deal quickly, but on Friday Iranian Araghchi said that no written proposal was generated in the middle of the “confusing and contradictory” rhetoric from Washington.

“Brand my words: There is no scenario in which Iran grabs his hard-earned right to peaceful purposes: a right that is also granted to all other NPT signatures,” he wrote in a contribution about X regarding the non-expansion contract.

Kazem Gharibabadi, a high -ranking Nuclear negotiator, declared reports from western media on Friday that Iran could possibly agree to fully enrich his enrichment of uranium for the rest of the Trump presidency to build trust.

“The right to enrich yourself is our absolute red line! It is not acceptable.”

Trump unilaterally withdrew from a pioneering nuclear agreement in 2018, which was signed between Iran and the world powers three years earlier and imposed the most difficult sanctions so far, which only tightened during the recent negotiations.

The nuclear agreement determined an enrichment rate of 3.67 percent with centrifuges of the first generation for civil use in Iran in exchange for the lifting of sanctions of the United Nations. Iran now enriches up to 60 percent and has enough foldable material for several bombs, but has not yet tried to build one.
