US EditionIran condemns Trump's 'disrespectful' Khamenei comments
- On June 28, 2025, Seyed Abbas Araghchi, Iran's Foreign Minister, criticized US President Donald Trump for his comments about Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, describing them as disrespectful and unacceptable.
- The condemnation came after Trump asserted on June 27 that he had prevented Khamenei from facing a brutal and disgraceful death, a statement that provoked backlash and led Trump to suspend efforts on easing sanctions.
- Araghchi posted on X urging Trump to set aside the disrespectful tone toward Khamenei and stop hurting millions of Iranian supporters, while Trump continues to push for renewed negotiations.
- On his social media platform Truth Social, Trump claimed he was fully aware of Khamenei’s location and asserted that neither Israeli nor U.S. military forces—whom he described as the most formidable in the world—would be allowed to kill the Iranian leader.
- The events highlight deep tensions after US and Israeli strikes on Iranian nuclear sites last weekend and suggest ongoing challenges to resuming nuclear talks amid mutual hostility.
