Iranian official warns against US military action following threats from Donald Trump

On June 11, 2026, Iranian Parliament Speaker and lead negotiator Mohammad Ghalibaf issued a public warning to the United States. This statement followed threats made by Donald Trump, who suggested a military strike against Iran and the potential seizure of Kharg Island. Ghalibaf warned that impulsive decisions and aggressive strategies would destabilize energy infrastructure and global markets. He cautioned that such actions would trap the United States in a prolonged, unresolved conflict. The Iranian official stated that any hostile moves would result in the world seeing a 'different Iran'. While reports indicate Trump's intention to strike hard, Ghalibaf emphasized that the consequences for the US would be severe and lasting. The exchange marks a significant escalation in tensions between the two nations.
