Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Yavad Zarif responded to US President Donald Trump that Iran is not impressed by his threats and suggested that he "be careful" in the middle of the verbal escalation between the two. "We are not impressed: the world heard bluffs even harder a few months ago."
"WE ARE NOT IMPRESSIONED: The world has heard even harder bluster a few months ago," he said. Zarif writes the capitals as he did Trump Monday
The head of the Iranian diplomacy said that the Iranians have heard such threats for 40 years since the Islamic Revolution overthrowing the Pahleví dynasty
"We have existed for millennia and we have seen the fall of empires, including ours, which lasted longer than the life of some countries. BEING CAUTO!" concluded Zarif [19659008]. NIMPRESSED: The world heard even more severe bluster a few months ago. And the Iranians have heard them – even if they are more civilized – for 40 years. We have been around for millennia and saw the fall of empires, including ours, that lasted longer than the lives of some countries. Be careful!

The tweet of the Iranian minister appears a few hours after Trump wrote on the same social network: "NEVER RETURN TO THREATS TO THE STATES UNITED, OR SUFFERING CONSEQUENCES THAT HAVE HAD HISTORY BEFORE, WE ARE NO LONGER A COUNTRY THAT WILL KEEP ITS TERMS OF DEEMENTIATIVE VIOLENCE AND DEATH WILL BE PRUDENT! "
The US President responded in turn to the statements of his Iranian counterpart, Hasan Rohani, who warned the US on Sunday that starting a conflict with Iran would mean "the mother of all wars".
Addressing Trump, Rohani advised him: "Do not play with the tail of the lion, he will regret it" an expression in Farsi equivalent to not playing with fire.
Trump withdrawn last May to the EU from the 2015 multilateral nuclear agreement with Iran and again imposed sanctions on Tehran which will come into effect next August and threaten to sink the already battered Iranian economy.
A measure that aims to make Iran surrender to two of its lines Red: its ballistic missile programs and its regional influence
This month, Trump was confident that the Islamic Republic will accept their conditions and will contact him to reach a new agreement because he has "many problems and his economy is sinking."
