Iran Rebukes Trump for Belligerent Comments in UN Letter

Iran criticized President Trump’s “belligerent statements” regarding the Islamic Republic, claiming violations of the UN Charter. Iranian envoy Amir Saeid Iravani accused Trump of justifying U.S. aggression and war crimes against Yemen. Trump stated Iran would be held responsible for Houthi attacks on foreign ships in the Red Sea.

On Monday, Iran formally reprimanded U.S. President Donald Trump for making what it described as “belligerent statements” regarding the Islamic Republic. In a letter addressed to the United Nations Security Council, Iranian envoy Amir Saeid Iravani accused President Trump of violating the UN Charter.

The Iranian envoy asserted that Trump’s remarks serve to “unlawfully justify the U.S. acts of aggression and war crimes against Yemen.” This statement came as part of Iran’s broader condemnation of U.S. foreign policy.

Earlier in the day, President Trump declared that Iran would be held directly accountable for any future assaults by the Houthi rebels in Yemen, who are supported by Tehran. The Houthi rebels have previously targeted U.S. and foreign vessels in the Red Sea.

The Iranian government has accused President Trump of making provocative statements that endanger international peace and violate the UN Charter. The situation remains tense as the U.S. engages in military operations in Yemen, with Iran asserting that these actions constitute aggression and war crimes. Overall, the escalating rhetoric underscores a fraught relationship between Iran and the United States.
