US President Donald Trump on Sunday issued one other threat to Iran, accusing it of “taking part in games” and laughing at America for decades, without commenting directly on reports of Tehran’s response to Washington’s latest peace proposal.
“Iran has been playing games with the United States, and the rest of the World, for 47 years (DELAY, DELAY, DELAY!), and then finally hit “pay dirt” when Barack Hussein Obama grew to became President,” Trump said on his Truth Social platform.
Trump used the moment to further mock his predecessor, saying he was “great” with Iran and sidelined Israel and all diversified allies, whereas offering a entire bunch of billions of bucks to Tehran “on a silver platter.”
“For 47 years the Iranians have been “tapping” us along, conserving us ready, killing our of us with their roadside bombs, destroying protests, and no longer too long ago wiping out 42,000 innocent, unarmed protestors, and laughing at our now GREAT AGAIN Nation. They’ll be laughing now no longer!” he said.
Iran Responds To US Proposal
His remarks came after Iran sent its response to a US proposal for peace talks to end the war, Iranian state media reported on Sunday. The response focused on ending the war on all fronts, especially Lebanon, and on the safety of shipping through the strait, Iranian state TV said, without indicating how or when the Strait of Hormuz might reopen.
Despite a month-old ceasefire in the conflict and after some 48 hours of relative calm, hostile drones were detected over several Gulf countries on Sunday, underlining the threat still facing the region. However, two vessels passed safely through the strait, including an LNG carrier.
Tehran has largely blocked non-Iranian shipping through the narrow Strait of Hormuz, which before the war carried one-fifth of the world’s oil supply and has emerged as one of the central pressure points in the war. The US also kept up pressure on Iran by enforcing a naval blockade around Iranian ports.
Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the war was not over because there was “more work to be done” to remove enriched uranium from Iran, dismantle enrichment net sites and deal with Iran’s proxies and ballistic missile capabilities.
Moreover, the UK and France are leading efforts to develop a world coalition to stable the strait after a peace deal is secured, with each and every countries sending vessels to the region in come. On the opposite hand, Iran warned of “a decisive and fast response” prompting French President Emmanuel Macron to insist that it was just a security mission.
