Iran Warns Of Regional Strike As Trump Pushes Nuclear Talks
5 weeks ago
Iran’s leadership has warned the United States of a potential regional conflict if attacked, as tensions rise over Tehran’s nuclear program and domestic crackdown on protests. Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said Iranians “will not be intimidated” but do not seek to attack other countries, while pledging a strong response if provoked.
Despite the standoff, both sides signaled willingness to resume negotiations. Tehran’s top security official said talks were underway, and President Donald Trump confirmed that Iran is “seriously talking” with the U.S. about a deal that would prevent nuclear weapons.
Iran’s parliamentary speaker also announced plans to label EU armies as terrorist organizations and potentially expel EU military attaches, following the European Union’s recent designation of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards as terrorists.
Protests over economic hardships continue to challenge the Islamic Republic, with rights groups reporting thousands of deaths, though the figures could not be independently verified.
