The 45th President of the United States, Mr. Donald Trump has taken to Twitter to lash out at Iran over the nuclear deal the Obama-led US government sealed with Iran.
The tensions between the two countries have been simmering since the election of Trump, a harsh critic of the nuclear deal with lran that the Obama administration brokered. Last week, Trump announced a temporary travel ban on nationals from Iran and six other Muslim-majority countries, barring them from entering the United States.
Speaking to reporters Thursday in Tehran, the Iranian adviser, Ali Akbar Velayati, dismissed what he called the US leader’s “baseless ranting” and said that even Americans were not satisfied with “Trump’s extremism,” according to Iran’s semiofficial Fars News Agency.
Velayati blasted Trump as lacking sufficient experience, saying he should take lessons from his predecessor, Barack Obama. Those who threaten the Muslim world should take a look at US failures in Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria, he added.
Mr Trump has however taken to social media to put out a stern warning to the Iranian Government.
Take a look at the Tweet below:
Iran is playing with fire – they don't appreciate how "kind" President Obama was to them. Not me!
