Iran’s chief negotiator Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf on Saturday warned of a “crushing” response if US president Donald Trump resumes hostilities, saying Tehran had rebuilt its armed forces during a ceasefire
“Our armed forces have rebuilt themselves during the ceasefire period in such a way that if Trump commits another act of folly and restarts the war, it will certainly be more crushing and bitter for the United States than on the first day of the war,” he posted on social media.
Ghalibaf made the warning after meeting in Tehran with Pakistan’s Army Chief Field Marshal Asim Munir, a leading figure in international efforts to negotiate a diplomatic settlement.
