Trump Warns Iran: President Donald Trump declared that he has instructed his advisers to “obliterate” Iran if the country attempts to assassinate him. “If they did that, they would be obliterated,”
Trump stated while signing an executive order to impose maximum pressure on Tehran. “I’ve left instructions—if they do it, they get obliterated. There won’t be anything left.” If Trump were assassinated, Vice President JD Vance would become president and would not necessarily be bound by any instructions left by his predecessor.Also Read: Delhi Election 2025 LIVE: 8.10% Voter Turnout Recorded by 9 AM, Updates Here
Federal authorities have been tracking Iranian threats against Trump and other administration officials for years. Trump directed the 2020 strike that killed Qassem Soleimani, the leader of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’ Quds Force. A threat from Iran against Trump led to increased security in the days before a July campaign rally in Pennsylvania, where he was shot in the ear, according to US officials. However, officials at the time said they did not believe Iran was involved in the assassination attempt.Also Read: ‘Tujhse Nahi Hoga’: Farah Khan Gave Up Teaching Junaid Khan Dance During ‘Loveyapa'
Iran Denies Allegations Iranian officials dismissed the US accusations, with Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei calling them an attempt by “Israel-linked circles” to complicate Iran-US relations. Despite the denials, US intelligence agencies remain cautious about Iranian activities targeting former and current officials. Shakeri, an Afghan national living in Iran, told the FBI that a contact in Iran’s paramilitary Revolutionary Guard instructed him last September to set aside other work he was doing and assemble a plan within seven days to surveil and ultimately kill Trump, according to a criminal complaint unsealed in federal court in Manhattan. Trump recently revoked government security protection for former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, former national security adviser John Bolton, and ex-special envoy Brian Hook. All three faced threats from Iran due to their aggressive stances against the Islamic Republic during Trump’s first term. With tensions escalating, Trump’s warnings signal that any attack against him would trigger severe retaliation, further straining US-Iran relations.Also Read: Nagpur Police Stop India’s Senior-most Member from Entering Team Hotel: ‘Arey Coach Hai Woh’
