Trump shrugs off Larijani’s threat: 'I couldn’t care less’

Mar 8, 2026, 06:48 GMT+0

US President Donald Trump dismissed threats from Iran’s top security official Ali Larijani, telling CBS News he had no idea who Larijani was and that he “couldn’t care less.”

Trump was responding after Larijani, secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, said earlier on Saturday that Trump must “pay the price” for the US-Israeli strikes on Iran.

“I have no idea what he’s talking about, who he is. I couldn’t care less,” Trump said, adding, "He intended to take over the Middle East and he's conceded and surrendered to all of those countries because of me."

Trump also said US strikes would continue as he presses Iran for what he called an “unconditional surrender.”
