Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said on Monday the U.S. would receive a strong blow if it acts on President Donald Trump's threat to bomb unless Tehran reaches a new nuclear deal with Washington.
Trump reiterated his threat on Sunday that Iran would be bombed if it does not accept his offer for talks outlined in a letter sent to Iran's leadership in early March, giving Tehran a two-month window to make a decision.
Iran handed a warning on Monday about Trump's threats to Switzerland's embassy, which represents U.S. interests and acts as an intermediary between Washington and Tehran, state media said. In its warning, Tehran expressed determination to respond "decisively and immediately" to any threat.
"The enmity from the U.S. and Israel has always been there. They threaten to attack us, which we don’t think is very probable, but if they commit any mischief they will surely receive a strong reciprocal blow," Khamenei said.
"And if they are thinking of causing sedition inside the country as in past years, the Iranian people themselves will deal with them," he added.
