President Hassan Rouhani downplayed the recent anti-Iran threats by US President Donald Trump and his aides, saying that such remarks will not intimidate the Iranian nation.
“The Iranian nation is not afraid of empty threats and is much greater than Trump, (Mike) Pompeo, (John) Bolton and all those extremists who have got together in Washington,” Rouhani said on Tuesday, IRNA reported.
Addressing himself to Trump and the neocons around him, the president said, “Mr. Trump I announce from here that the Iranian nation will emerge triumphant and successful against you.”
