TEHRAN: Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, has issued a stern warning to the United States, stating that if Washington commits any folly against Iran, it will be met with a crushing response.
As per detail, responding to recent U.S. threats, Khamenei emphasised that intimidation tactics would not work against Iran. “The Americans must understand that Iran cannot be subdued by mere threats,” he asserted.
Criticising Western narratives, Khamenei stated that the U.S. and European powers insult resistance movements by labelling them as Iranian proxies. “Iran does not need any proxies,” he declared, rejecting allegations that Tehran backs armed groups to expand its influence.
This statement comes amid rising tensions between Iran and the U.S., as Washington continues to blame Tehran for supporting regional resistance groups.
