Trump Threatens to Completely Decimate Iran Over Assassination Plot

United States President, Mr. Donald Trump, has warned that the US would “completely decimate” Iran if the Islamic Republic attempts or succeeds in assassinating him, dramatically escalating tensions between Washington and Tehran despite ongoing diplomatic efforts.
In a post on his Truth Social platform yesterday, Trump declared that the US military had already been placed on alert to launch a massive retaliatory strike against Iran should any assassination attempt be made against him.

“1,000 missiles are locked and loaded and aimed at the Islamic Republic of Iran, with thousands of more to follow immediately, should the Iranian Government act on its threat to assassinate, or attempt to assassinate, the sitting President of the United States of America, in this case, ME!” Trump wrote.

He added: “Orders have already been given, and the U.S. military is ready, willing, and able, for one year, subject to extension, to completely decimate and destroy all areas of Iran.”
Trump’s remarks came despite his earlier agreement to continue negotiations with Iran, although he maintained that the ceasefire between both countries was effectively over.

“The Islamic Republic of Iran has asked us to continue talks. We have agreed to do so, but the United States has stated to them, in no uncertain terms, that the Cease Fire is OVER!” he posted.
Iran, however, rejected Trump’s claims, insisting it had remained committed to the memorandum of understanding signed with Washington last month.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said Tehran had fulfilled its obligations under the agreement, accusing the United States of violating its own commitments.
“The Islamic Republic of Iran has so far kept its word. Reality check: There can only be mutual compliance,” Araghchi said.
He argued that Washington had breached provisions that required it not to impose new sanctions or deploy additional forces in the region while negotiations continued.
