Iranian lawmaker hints US, Arab allies could face strikes if talks fail
An Iranian lawmaker appeared to threaten the United States and its Arab allies ahead of talks between Tehran and Washington, warning any "mischievous" action would incur "a very painful price."
“America is still the same America, and Trump is still the same Trump,” Iran's parliamentary national security committee spokesman, Ebrahim Rezaei said in a post on X on Friday.
“If they seek negotiations (and not coercion or bullying), we will sit at the table. But if they act mischievously and flip the table, the price will be very painful.”
He went on to list potential targets, saying: “a) perhaps an American base, b) perhaps the glass towers of their supporters, c) perhaps an oil facility servicing them, d) perhaps all of the above."
