Iran Leader Rebuffs Trump Warning, Says He Shows America’s ‘Real Face’
In his first speech since Trump’s inauguration, Iran’s supreme leader called on Iranians to respond to Trump’s “threats” - which he said had failed to frighten Iranians - on Friday’s anniversary of the 1979 revolution.
“We are thankful to (Trump) for making our life easy as he showed the real face of America,” Khamenei told a meeting of military commanders in Tehran, according to his website.
“During his election campaign and after that, he confirmed what we have been saying for more than 30 years about the political, economic, moral and social corruption in the U.S. ruling system,” he added.
