Ali Larijani, a senior advisor to Iran\u2019s Supreme Leader, warned that any attack on Iran \u201cwill not go unanswered\u201d and called on former US President Donald Trump to \u201cdefine economic interests with Iran.\u201d His remarks came two days after he suggested that Tehran could reconsider its nuclear program in response to any American military strike.<\/p>\n
On Sunday, Trump threatened Iran with an unprecedented military response and further economic pressure if it failed to reach an agreement with Washington to curb its nuclear ambitions.<\/p>\n
Earlier, on March 7, Trump announced he had sent a letter to Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, urging negotiations on a new nuclear deal or facing possible military action.<\/p>\n
In response, Khamenei warned on Monday that the US would receive a \u201cstrong slap\u201d if it acted on Trump\u2019s threats.<\/p>\n
Hours later, Larijani cautioned that continued pressure on Iran could push the country toward developing nuclear weapons. In an interview with state television, he said: \u201cThe Supreme Leader\u2019s fatwa forbids nuclear weapons, but if the US makes a mistake, the Iranian people may demand their production.\u201d He added that even \u201crational Americans\u201d understood that attacking Iran would only accelerate its nuclear ambitions.<\/p>\n
On Wednesday, Larijani shared part of his television interview on his X account, stating: \u201cMr. Trump is a talented businessman who has built significant wealth. The US can define economic interests with Iran.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
