U.S. President Donald Trump should realize that Iranians become more united when bullied, Iranian Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani said on Tuesday in remarks broadcast live on state television.
The statement comes after Trump sent a warning to Iran on Monday, stating he is now in a position to do “far worse if something should happen”.
Tensions between Tehran and Washington escalated earlier in June after the Islamic Republic downed a US spy drone crossed the Iranian border.
Following the incident, President Trump said that the US Armed Forces planned to carry out a retaliatory strike against the Middle Eastern country, claiming he had stopped it ten minutes before the start of the operation.
