Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi issued a stern warning to the United States on Sunday evening, October 18, in response to President Donald Trump's threat to "finish the job" against Tehran. Araghchi, writing on social media, invited the U.S. to "try their luck again" but cautioned that Iran "has unfinished jobs too," suggesting a strong retaliatory response.
Araghchi asserted that past U.S. pressure tactics had only strengthened Iran, citing a previous instance where attempts to "finish the job" resulted in Iran emerging "even stronger." He directly challenged the U.S. to test Iran's resolve once more, while simultaneously warning of consequences.
In the same social media post, Araghchi leveled serious accusations against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The Iranian minister claimed that Netanyahu is deliberately attempting to drag the United States into a new conflict with Iran for personal gain. Araghchi specifically stated that Netanyahu's actions are aimed at avoiding imprisonment, regardless of the potential repercussions for Israel or the U.S. President.
This exchange follows President Trump's positive remarks about his cooperation with Netanyahu against Iran, and his statement that Washington might act unilaterally if a different Israeli leader came to power.
