The Guardian:
Iran’s deputy foreign minister, Saeed Khatibzadeh, said Donald Trump “talks too much” as he reacted to the US president’s threats that American forces would “start dropping bombs again” if no deal is reached between Washington and Tehran.
Speaking to reporters on the sidelines of the Antalya Diplomatic Forum in Turkey, Khatibzadeh said: “That’s president Trump talk, he talks too much, he said contradictory things within the same statement.”
Trump was asked by reporters aboard Air Force One yesterday whether he would extend the temporary ceasefire with Iran, which expires on Wednesday, if a deal is not reached before then. He replied: “I don’t know, maybe not, maybe I won’t extend it, but the blockade is going to remain … and unfortunately we’ll have to start dropping bombs again”.
