Iran rejects Trump’s White House visit remark, warns of retaliation

Iran’s UN mission in New York rejected President Donald Trump’s statement that Iranian officials proposed a visit to the White House.

“No Iranian official has ever asked to grovel at the gates of the White House,” the mission said in a post on X and condemned what it called Trump’s “cowardly threat” to target Iran’s Supreme Leader.

It warned Iran would respond to any threat or action with reciprocal measures.
