Khaberni - American President Donald Trump, who previously survived two assassination attempts, said on Thursday that he is not worried about his safety, threatening that if any harm happens to him, the perpetrator "will disappear".
Trump said in an interview with "News Nation": "I'm not worried about it. We have excellent people, who are in excellent physical condition. The Secret Service and the military are doing a great job. One thing I know for sure: if anything happens, the perpetrator will be held accountable."
Trump was subjected to two assassination attempts, the first during a campaign speech in Pennsylvania on July 13, 2024, where he was hit by a bullet in his ear, resulting in the death of one attendee and injuring two others.
The American Secret Service reported that they killed the suspect, Thomas Matthew Crooks, a 20-year-old who fired several shots towards the stage. Crooks was hiding on the roof of an industrial building approximately 100 meters from the platform, outside the event area.
The second attempt occurred on September 15 of the same year at Trump's golf club in Florida. The suspect, named Ruth, is believed to be obsessed with the conflict in Ukraine, and the Ukrainian armed forces have confirmed that he repeatedly tried to join their ranks.
However, Trump recently warned Iran and threatened to blow it up entirely if his life was endangered.
Trump's statements came in response to a question from "News Nation" about potential Iranian threats targeting him, where he said: "They shouldn't do that, but I warned them: if anything happens, the entire country (Iran) will explode… I have very clear instructions, if anything happens, they will be completely wiped out."
In the same context, Trump attacked his predecessor Joe Biden, considering that his administration pursued a lenient and weak policy towards Iran, and said: "We always wondered why doesn’t Biden say anything? If I were in the White House at that time, and if they threatened anyone, not necessarily the president, but anyone as they did with me, I would have delivered a very harsh blow."
These remarks come days after a warning issued by Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, who affirmed that Iran is ready to teach Trump "an unforgettable lesson" if he decides to attack the Islamic Republic.
