Even if the United States smiles and speaks kindly, it remains Iran’s enemy, said Nadergholi Ebrahimi, an Iranian parliamentarian from Arak.
Reacting to Donald Trump’s demand for the dismantling of Iran’s nuclear program, Ebrahimi said, “Whether America smiles, frowns, speaks gently, or holds bullets in its hands, it is still our enemy and we must not be lulled into excessive optimism or neglect.”
He added that negotiations should continue only if they lead to the lifting of sanctions, but warned, “If Trump’s insistence on dismantling our nuclear facilities continues, we will call for the talks to be cut off.”
