Iran official slams Trump’s bombing threat, questions UN silence on tensions

Dr Mohammad Hossein Ziyaeenia Deputy Representative of the Office of the Supreme Leader of Iran in India has strongly objected to US President Donald Trumps earlier threats of bombing infrastructure in his country unless a peace deal is reached and said the United Nations and international organisations remained silent in the wake of such remarksIn an interview with ANI Ziyaeenia no country objected to Trumps remarks even as these were against international law He also raised questions over assassination of Irans Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei on February 28 the day the war started between Iran on one side and the Israel and United States on the otherThis is the first time that an official from a country is clearly stating that he wants to break every International Law in this war and no one is objecting to him He said that I want to erase the Iranian Persian civilisation Yet no one is rejecting him The question at this point should be why our world has come to this point that we are witnessing this Again the UN is silent There is silence from international organisations Ziyaeenia saidSo this person again finds the courage and the mindset to go say that he would do all this Who is responsible for the martyrdom of our Supreme Leader This is the first time that a country attacked and assassinated an official in a country with which they were negotiating and no one is questioning this These are the main questions that international organisations should make them answer he addedHe was asked about Trumps threat to bomb Irans infrastructure There is tenuous ceasefire between the US and Iran The ceasefire was announced on April 7 and later extended The first round of talks between the two sides in Islamabad did not yield any outcome Trump had in the first week of this month issued threats of massive bombing if Iran does not agree to a peace dealDuring an interview with Axios Trump said There is a good chance but if they dont make a deal I am blowing up everything over there adding that discussions are ongoing and suggested a deal could still be reached before the deadlineShortly before the interview Trump issued a strong warning on Truth Social threatening to target Irans critical infrastructure if demands are not met In his post Trump used unusually harsh language to convey his message reminding Tehran of his deadline to make a deal or to open the StraitTuesday will be Power Plant Day and Bridge Day all wrapped up in one in Iran There will be nothing like it Open the Fn Strait you crazy bastards or youll be living in Hell JUST WATCH Praise be to Allah he stated in his post Trump had earlier stated that Irans biggest bridge has been hit and in a sharply worded statement called on Tehran to make a deal before it is too lateIrans Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmail Baghaei responded to US President Donald Trumps threats warning that Iran will respond in kind to any attack on its infrastructure according to Al Jazeera Answering a query Ziyaeenia Irans actions including on US bases in region were in selfdefenceIran is targeting the invaders of its territory A warplane is not able to fly from US territory toward Iran even from the occupied land of Palestine Thats why US bases are located around Iran What would be your response if your home was targeted by bases around you and then the invader says that my home is far away from you you have to target my home Should we remain silent and allow them to target our country from these bases Iran and India these two civilisations these two nations are not invaders We were invaded by foreign powers and we are responsible for defending our people he saidHe was asked about Irans strikes on targets in Gulf countries in retaliation to the USIsrael attacks He dismissed
