"Do not play with the tail of the lion, otherwise he will regret it": Iranian President Hbadan Rohani today used this expression (the equivalent of "joke with fire") to warn US President Donald Trump against his hostile policy towards Iran

"Mr. Trump, – said Rohani at a meeting with Iranian ambbadadors – we are men of honor and those which have guaranteed the security of the regional strait (the Strait of Ormuz) in history ". And then, referring to US sanctions, he added: "Keep in mind that you can not provoke the Iranian people at the expense of the security and interests of his country, Iran is a master and will not be the servant or the handyman. " Rohani then recalled that Iran has "many relatives, that of Ormuz is only one of them," stressing that the United States "should understand that peace with Iran is the mother of all peace, while the war with "Iran is the mother of all wars."

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Supreme Leader of Iran , also spoke about relations between Iran and the United States. "Thinking that a resumption of relations with the United States will solve the Iranian problems is a" gross mistake ", he said, in addressing the Ministry of Foreign Affairs officials and Tehran ambbadadors around the world, on Washington's fundamental problem in relations with Iran. it is "the principle of the Islamic State," Khamenei added, claiming that "the enemies are continuing their psychological warfare" against Tehran.

Since US President Donald Trump announced the release of his country from the nuclear deal with Iran and the re-imposition of sanctions against the Islamic Republic, the Iranian economy has entered in a serious crisis and the national currency has suffered a sharp devaluation. State Secretary Mike Pompeo said that if Tehran accepts the conditions set by Washington, including the resignation of the missile program and military penetration in the countries of the region, the United States is ready to resume relations diplomatic and economic relations with the Islamic Republic after a 40-year freeze
