Iran has responded to recent threats from former US President Donald Trump with a stern warning, stating its armed forces are prepared to retaliate. Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, a leading Iranian negotiator, cautioned the US to exercise caution in its statements. The warning signals heightened tensions between the two nations, particularly concerning Iran’s nuclear program. This response comes amid ongoing debates surrounding the potential revival of the 2015 nuclear deal, which Trump unilaterally withdrew from in 2018. Ghalibaf’s statement implies Iran possesses multiple response options should it perceive a threat. The situation raises concerns about potential escalation in the region and the future of diplomatic efforts. Further details regarding the nature of potential retaliation were not immediately available.
